Hi everybody, having recently moved from Europe, I now have the problem that my Systemdek 60 hz turntable does not work in the US. Does anybody know an economic way to deal with the 60 to 50 hz conversion problem? Thanks a lot! Hans
The only way I can think of is to use a power regenerator like the PP-300 from PS Audio or the SDS from Vpi. Both of them cost about $1000 new or $600 used. Don't know if that meet your definition of economic way.
The simpliest way is to replace the motor pooley and some of the electronic shops can do that or you can even contact manufacturer for such replacement. I guess this path can be much more cheaper than PS Audio or SDS...
Since you mentioned that you just moved FROM Europe, wouldnt you want to keep your table 60Hz. I just recently swaped a 50Hz crystal on a Linn Valhalla ps for a 60Hz and it cost me about $3.00. If your ps has a crystal, perhaps you could do this also. Be specific on your current ps. Is it 50 or 60Hz?
