Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?


I have just acquired a 32 year old JVC/Victor TT-101 DD turntable after having its lesser brother, the TT-81 for the last year.
TT-101
This is one of the great DD designs made at a time when the giant Japanese electronics companies like Technics, Denon, JVC/Victor and Pioneer could pour millions of dollars into 'flagship' models to 'enhance' their lower range models which often sold in the millions.
Because of their complexity however.......if they malfunction.....parts are 'unobtanium'....and they often cannot be repaired.

Sounds like you have the electronic overhaul done, but the transformer.

Thanks

If you see Popsy walking very very slowly down the middle of your street, and if he looks kind of greenish and seems to want to eat you, just offer him an SL1200.
just offer him an SL1200.

If you want to see if Popsy can still do the Zombie dance, make sure the sl1200 is playing

Thriller as he approaches u.
