If I were younger I would get one myself. To be honest, the Garrard Zero 100 SB isnt very quiet and moreover the platter acts like an amplifier (a bell, actually) for the hums and the noises coming out from the transport system (belt, motor, spindle and motor pulley). Forged from our fully-balanced, zero-feedback designs, we innovate new. Just my thoughts, from one with zero practical knowledge of the Garrard Zero100, but am interested in the unit. It carries a three-year warranty, including parts, labor, and shipping costs one.
If it is close to parallel, then you would not need to adjust,as it will change slightly for different thickness records.īut this should be in the User Manual, if it is indeed a User adjustment to make! To decide if the "gap"needs to be adjusted,check if the bottom of the cartridgeis parallel to the surface of the record. (You could use an average 150/170gm lp if you wish). Since you deduce that the "gap" can be adjusted to raise or lower the rear of the cartridge, then maybe it is intended to adjust for the different depth measurement of cartridges, so that the bottom of the cartridge is parallel to the record surface.and so attain correct vta/sra for the cartridge in use and with a particular thickness/weight record.
Since they are not expensive, it might be better to get another Zero100 for spares. I thought it was a gamble that that motor would work. Find many great new & used options and get the best deals for Garrard Zero 100c Tone Arm Bearing Assembly Part Never or Mounted at the best online prices at.
