colterphoto1 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 those dual tonearm rigs were great for LP's of the day with dual-spiral grooves such as Monty Python's 'Matching Tie and Handkerchef' which was a three sided LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegardsMichael Gammon www.transcriptors.net Thank you Michael, I remember reading recently that Michell was not the inventor of the Hydraulic! I just missed a bid the other day on a pristine Focus which was an entry level table but a very nice one! Appreciate the link and history lesson, your father was one heck of an engineer[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
