TW AC1 Raven speed control unit and static

Holy cow......to the rescue and so fast!

This afternoon after I called Jeff he got in touch with Thomas W. the designer of my TT!!! They we're both anxious to get a solution to my situation but more importantly to solve it asap. So Jeff offered to me a free replacement (same model) control unit to get me up and running (it's the 45rpm that does not work properly....the 33 1/3 is mark on).

Both Jeff and Thomas report that there have been no other reports of similar situations from other owners of the AC-AC3 or Raven 1 customers so something in or around my electronics just reacts to static in a weird way.

I plan to take Jeff's great offer and get the replacement unit. I also plan on getting the newer control unit since I have heard some sparking reports about it!

Great support from Jeff and Thomas!!!!

The service of TW is world class. No doubt.

Just a final update. I picked up a replacement control unit for my Raven AC1 and it works just fine. I even learned how to fine tune the speed controls. And if I had tried that (speed control) sooner, then all this would have never been an issue. You see, when the static charge affected the control unit it only put the 45 speed back to 33 1/3. The unit was never damaged or defective!!! It just needed to have the speed (on the 45rpm) re-set!!!
Boy am I embarrassed. But also grateful to Jeff for the new unit.

P.S. I probably will be getting the newer control unit is a month or so and I will pass along my comments.

P.P.S. I saw (did not hear) the new TW 10.5 arm. Boy, if it sounds like it looks (sleek, stylish, solid) then Thomas has a work of art and Jeff is going to sell quite a few....me thinks!!
