KRIESLER STEREOGRAM 1965

My previous restoration project, the 1965 Australian Kriesler 1965 Multi-Sonic Stereogram - I believe these were based on various models of Magnavox in the USA. It is completely original, just a few repairs were made.

hi, i have the same unit,the arm gets to almost the end of the record and stays there,do have any ideas on fixing the problem thanks

@archy091 Hi, This is a common problem as these Garrards age... but the fix is fairly simple. If you watch my repair video called "BSR Turntable Seized Record Repair", the CAM gear and TRIP mechanism is exactly the same. These 2 items just need to be cleaned and the TRIP lever free to move without any resistance. I think this is what is causing your current problem as it makes the arm stop at a certain point and not proceed. I hope this helps and thanks for the comments...!

Very nice sounding console and it looks great, too. Just curious as to when Australia started to manufacture solid state consoles? The earliest solid state console our family owned was a 1964 Magnavox and I believe some of the higher end Magnavox's went solid state as early as 1963.

@AstroSonic1967 Thanks for the comment - Australia went solid state probably late 60's, usually in the small portable models. I would kill for a Magnavox (Colaro UK) Micromatic TT, so cool to watch cycle...

YEs i also have brought this exact same model for only 50bux in absolute original and mint condition!! at auction here in Geelong, only thing i need is a new stylus do you know the one i need>?

@Thyanarchist Thanks for the comment! A new stylus totally depends on the cartridge that has been installed in the turntable. Most of these models used a ceramic cartridge that over time would fail. My suggestion is that you pick up a new cartridge, perhaps a new/old stock 'Sonotone' or which are readily available on eBay. I forget the model number, but the stylus number is 9TA. Look that up and you should discover the model number for that version. This is what I have & it's superb!

Get some Shadows on it and It would be perfect.
