Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2011 12:52 pm
Hi all,
After many years i finally got the time to restore my Grunding KS460, console. Its has a old DUal Turntable, Shortwave Radio, and the TM45 stereo reel to reel.
It has 2 EL95's as outputs for each channel.
- The TM45 needed many belts, pullies and cast iron bits that just crumbled. Luckily i had a spare
- The Amp section needed the rectifiers replaced, voltage drop power resistors, and of course all paper / wax capacitors replaced. One resistor was also bad.
- The turntble need a good grease, the main problem was rebuilding the spindle to make the dropping of multiple records work. See other post "dual 1019 spindle"
Though some of the member may like the picture and a video i put on youtube.
