Rotel RP 1000 Pt 5.

Hi You Tubers,

This is part 5. for the Rotel record deck RP1000 - not as I mention on the video 18572 which is the series number.

This deck has been given to me by my colleague Philip at Avante Partnership.

Watch all parts of the programme and I look forward to receiving your comments.




Warm regards

Richard

A happy ending, Richard! I love the way it looks and sounds - a quality turntable for sure and a great restoration job! Nice choice of record to demonstrate it with too.

All the very best for 2012,

Warm Regards, Neil.

Hi Neil

Just need to sort the motor out - as the ticking is bound to get to me - so better do it now while I have the chance.

Warm regards

Hi Paul

Still some work to do - but getting there.

Happy New Year

This very similar to a deck I had as part of a Hitachi music centre. Nice to look at and to use, but it had a low voltage DC motor with a "stabilised" speed controller. The motor seemed grossly underpowered and I could not get the player to give the same lively performance as from my idler drives, so it got shelved. I think it will more likely do better with the four pole mains motor and although it's not sounding too great at the moment, it might kick in once the motor shaft is clean.

Many thanks - and you are not alone about the motor noise

Warm regards
