One little jammed spring or bushing can ruin performance. Set the arm to balance at zero skating and without cartridge and check to see how freely it floats. Turn bearing by hand, feel for smoothness and play. Pull platters, check belt or idler wheel for condition- cracks, dents etc. One by one check them out visually and by hand. Hope this helps & have fun with the project. A Pro-Ject Debut Carbon with cartridge sells for $500 brand-new. And youРІР‚в„ўre putting that into a 45 year-old device.

Keep in mind that an entry-level cartridge will be ~$100, a mat is ~$30 and protractor ranges from free (downloaded and printed) to hundreds. Compare that with the $$$ you want to invest. The key consideration is how much tinkering you really want to do. Folks rave about their high-end rim drive units, but those are very different animals from the Zero 100 (the Zero 92 was a record changer BTW). I always had trouble getting them to perform consistently as a result.

They employed questionable engineering and executed to a lower quality than most of their competitors. My experiences with most Garrard products were not generally favorable.

That means youРІР‚в„ўll lose that function permanently if you choose to upgrade the arm on either. Note that both the Marantz and Sansui feature auto-off. I canРІР‚в„ўt speak to the tracking capability but would suspect itРІР‚в„ўs similar to the Marantz. The arm has a mechanical return function so the fault may not be a switch - lots of bits and pieces can cause the function to fail. MC is correct about the SansuiРІР‚в„ўs auto-off function, but finding repair parts if youРІР‚в„ўre so inclined could entail a long search. Most of the JVC, Kenwood, Pioneer, Sansui and Technics (Panasonic) have very similar designs. If I remember aright, it was actually a private labeled Japanese table. The Marantz has the best arm of the 4 and is also very robustly constructed.

Arms can all be rewired, but with oxidization of the lube in the bearings and other accumulations of entropy, a full rebuild or replacement should be on your horizon if you decide you want to get further into analog and you pick the AR. A good protractor will be a must to set alignment. No anti-skate, azimuth is how you screw the head shell in and VTF adjustment is coarse. The AR XA/XB arm is very basic and if there is a weak link, thatРІР‚в„ўs it. That means the mechanical action of the arm dictates how the table ultimately performs.

It is the component that determines whether the stylus can properly trace the record groove. The tonearm is a key concern with all tables of this age. There are number of YouTube tune-up videos out there and youРІР‚в„ўll want to check them out. 91% isopropyl is usually sufficient for cleaning mechanical surfaces. No matter what, clean the platter, pulley and replace the belt. They can usually be replaced, but then youРІР‚в„ўre investing money you could have put toward a newer, and possibly better, rig. The motor has to hold itРІР‚в„ўs speed and be noise-free (both electrically and mechanically). So long as the bearing and 'race' (it isnРІР‚в„ўt really, more like a sleeve in most cases but I digress) arenРІР‚в„ўt pitted or corroded, youРІР‚в„ўre fine. The main bearing assembly in these tables is easily disassembled, cleaned and oiled. Mats are a standard tweak so not a worry.Р”В«asically, the table itself just needs to spin silently. If I recall correctly, the AR platter is the heaviest of the bunch, which is generally preferable. They are dirt-simple to work on and solidly built. ItРІР‚в„ўs a classic design that has remained desirable for decades. Of those, the AR could be the best way to go, especially if you like to tinker. IРІР‚в„ўve got some experience with the AR, Marantz and Garrard tables. Hey man! Been awhile since IРІР‚в„ўve seen your handle on a new thread, and I trust youРІР‚в„ўre still doing well.

In addition to manual operation the Zero 100 will automatically play single 7', 10' and 12' records, or a stack of up to seven 12' records - adaptors are available to play records with large centre holes and to play a stack of 7' records.' 'The Garrard Zero 100 is a superb two-speed transcription turntable with such special features as:Р”Р„n ingenious tonearm virtually without tracking error (patent applied for) with damped cueing action.Р”Р„ magnetic tonearm anti-skating system (patent applied for).Р”Р„ motor with the advantages of both induction and synchronous motors (patent applied for).Р”Р„ record speed and pitch control system with built in stroboscopic checking.Р”Р„ tilting device to set the cartridge at a 15 degree tracking angle.
