detubo, hansen, clearaudio solution and notingham TT owners,

this device has an extender. i saw it. it will fit all known turntables in the market.

please measure how high the tonearm is from the plinth. 6 inches? 8 inches? it can be custom made.

mandy promises prices will be the same for the first 5 folks to order!

guaranteed to work!

am spinning records worry-free tonight! are you? :-D

OK. In that case reserve one for me then.

Hi Arnold,

I am not too sure we can't make a TonaL version for linear trackers. If there is a bit of elbow room available, I am quite certain something can be done. Let me know if you want me to look into it.

Please reserve one for me also, for a VPI JMW 9. Mandy you are familiar with the JMW arm you had a jmw 10 last year?

Thanks

Joey

ako din. reserve me one for my solution table

by **troporobo** » Sun Sep 11, 2005 8:52 am

Beautiful work sir! I'm in too - please reserve one for me and let me know when/where to pick up.

by **vintage_dog** » Sun Sep 11, 2005 8:52 am

mandy asked me to help coordinate the ordering of these items:

these early birds get the custom-made device at a very special price:

1. hansen
2. detubo (tonyboy)
3. joey3p
4. troporobo
5.

please note, mandy will personally install the device on your turntable. he has a generic model (adjustable version, which is what i have temporarily), but will customize units to suit your table if needed.

IMPORTANT: please post the height (from top of the tonearm wand to the plinth) for your set-up.

oh, i have now developed a very bad habit. i find myself playing the last 1 or 2 tracks only of a record. well, i am just fascinated to see the lifter do it's work each time. it never fails. :-D

am one happy vinyl junkie! hassle free!

being a sunday morning, my breakfast was quite heavy...and lazy. eating tinapa and longanisa, kamatis, itlog na pula... usually, i would be spinning a CD on the background. a record was out of the question. one side was not long enough for a breakfast, that's why. and besides, how would you operate a TT when done while having your hands oily from the sinangag and longanisa. no way!

no way?, well this morning, i had ella on LP sing to me hassle-free. why worry. when record hits the end, the lifter just does its job effortlessly, gently. hassle free!

oh...now i enjoy sunday breakfasts with vinyl playing on the background...kahit nagkakamay pa.

:-D

the TonaL installed on my table has brass counterweights and accent (see pic below). would you want the same? am having an all-aluminum/steel (no brass) made to match with the all white steel of clearaudio.

let us know what you guys prefer.

by **troporobo** » Sun Sep 11, 2005 4:54 pm

Mandy / VD - thanks for coordinating our access to this great product.

I've just checked my Oracle Delphi and will need a plinth-to-tonearm centerline height of 4". Woudl prefer all aluminum/steel with no brass

However with the SME arm I'm not sure there's sufficient clearance between the platter and armboard "pod" so this may or may not work out. I'd still like to try though so let me know when you're ready to give it a go!

by **detubo** » Sun Sep 11, 2005 5:58 pm

aluminum and steel for me too. my plinth to tonearm height is 4"
