[quote user="Doctor"] It is a Moving Iron design which of course sounds confusing! Treat it as a Moving Magnet though it does have a very slightly lower output than normal. [/quote] Indeed but it still requires a phono (RIAA) preamp which is not always present nowadays on integrated amplifiers... Do make sure there is one on your amp, or else

Hello, Have you checked on the female jack, there could well be a short inside! How did you test the bridge rectifier? I have never seen one of this kind blow in 30 years! Nice pictures by the way!

[quote user="joeyboygolf"]I think my servo motors are all plastic. I don't recall any of them making any noise, even when driving the full length of arm travel.[/quote] Well my carriage motor has worked flawlessly since the repair, but noise there is most definitely , and it is loud enough!

Hello, I guess you meant the 4002 is more clanky! As far as motor noise is concerned, there is none on my 4002. With my ear stuck on the left side cornet of the plinth I can hear a faint motor noise but it is only just audible! Have you contemplated a problem with the motor itself? It is of the brushed, Matsushita servo type and they are prone to brush

Hi, Upon close inspection on my 4002 there is nothing on the stainless steel. Extensive use has just a tendency to polish the metal. I'd leave it well alone.

Same here! Our wives could be friends and tell each other nasty things about us!

[quote user="Step1"] the misses has said one has to go now - Looks like my B&O is going to have to earn it's keep in my house :( [/quote] Oh well don't we love them Ollie? I mean the good ladies! As for me, I have plenty of room in my house!

Hello, For those who used to follow this thread (thank you again) the 4002 is still working fine!

Bonjour, Beau travail, c'est souvent un problème, la lubrification !
