Suffering from an unstable pitch or incorrect speed? Then opt for a pitch revision.

What I do for you

• Disassembly and removal of the pitch module
• Desoldering of pitch fader and LED
• Cleaning of circuit board and housing
• Opening and cleaning of the pitch fader (carbon tracks and contact slider)
• Cleaning and checking of the pitch resistor
• Reassembly and careful resoldering
• Calibration of pitch resistor (2.7 kOhm, factory specification)
• Calibration of pitch frequency (262.07 kHz, factory specification)

Result

• Tight and accurate speed control
• Smooth and predictable pitch fader
• Reliable operation, even with intensive use

Are the carbon tracks inside the pitch slider worn? Then I will replace the module. But always after consultation.

Do you use two decks side-by-side? Then I can match the pitch adjustment of both decks 1-to-1. So that your drift is minimal.

A pitch revision can be easily combined with removing the pitch click, if you wish. Feel free to ask me about the possibilities!

Do you want to eliminate the click at the 0-point of your pitch fader? You can. I remove it for a completely smooth pitch movement.

What I do for you

• Disassembly and removal of the pitch module
• Desoldering of pitch fader and LED
• Opening of the pitch fader
• Modification of the click mechanism
• Reassembly and careful resoldering

Removing the pitch-click can be easily combined with a pitch fader overhaul. Feel free to ask me about the possibilities!

Result

• Completely smooth pitch without interruption
• More precise mixing around the zero point
• Consistent and linear control
  

Are your 33/45 buttons no longer working properly or are they responding erratically? Then have the microswitches under the buttons replaced.

What I will do for you

• Disassembly of the chassis and access to switches
• Removal of old 33/45 switches
• Installation of new, high-quality switches
• Checking and repairing solders
• Testing for correct speed selection

Result

• Instantly responding 33/45 switching
• Reliable speed selection
• No glitches or contact problems

Is your tonearm height adjustment system stuck or not running smoothly? Then choose the height-adjust revision. I will dismantle and clean the entire mechanism and rebuild it for you.

What I do for you

• Disassembly of chassis and tonearm housing
• Removal of the lock system
• Controlled loosening of the adjustment rings
• Thorough cleaning (incl. removal of old, hardened grease)
• Application of new high-quality lubricating grease (SuperLube (c))
• Reassembly of adjustment rings and lock system
• Calibration of the height-adjust system
• Cleaning of the tonearm housing
• Final test for function and smoothness

Result

• Smooth and precisely adjustable tonearm height
• No stuck or jerky mechanism
• Reliable operation for daily use

Stylus light broken? Have it replaced with a new incandescent bulb in the original warm Technics style. Includes re-lubrication of the pop-up system. It consists of:

What I do for you

• Disassembly of the chassis
• Removal of the pop-up mechanism
• Opening of the lamp housing
• Removal and desoldering of bulb, socket, and wiring
• Control measurement of the electronics
• Installation of new wiring, socket, and bulb (original warm style)
• Soldering and closing of the housing
• Lubrication of the pop-up system
• Reassembly and final test

Result

• Clearly visible stylus tip
• Smooth and quiet pop-up mechanism
• Original appearance

Prefer LED lighting instead of an incandescent bulb? That's also possible. Contact us for the options.

Do you want brighter and more durable lighting? Then choose an LED upgrade, where I replace all lights with high-quality LEDs.

Choose a color

• Blue
• White
• Green
• Red
• Pink
• Orange

What I do for you

• Disassembly of the chassis
• Replacement of the strobe lights, the 33/45 lights, the pop-up stylus light, and the pitch 0-point light.
• Reassembly and final test

Result

• Bright and consistent lighting
• Longer lifespan than original bulbs
• Sleek, modern look
  
  
  

Suffering from noise, hum, or signal dropouts? Or just ready for an upgrade? Have your audio cables replaced.

• Choose an upgrade to a multi-layer shielded cable with a copper core and gold-plated connectors recommended by me - without chassis modification!
• Any length up to 4.20 meters is possible
• Have another audio cable in mind? Let me know.

Want more flexibility? Then consider an upgrade with the RCA module. You can then connect any cable you want yourself. Read more below.

Ground your record player internally. The separate ground cable is then no longer necessary. Prefer a (new) ground cable? That's also possible!

Advantages of internal grounding

• No separate ground cable needed
• Less chance of hum and interference
• Neater and simpler connection
• More reliable in daily use

Do you want to get rid of fixed cables and upgrade your Technics to a flexible solution? Then I will install a high-quality RCA module on the underside of your Technics turntable, so you can easily connect any RCA cable you want.

• High-quality RCA module with gold-plated connectors
• Includes plug-in ground wire, or internal grounding
• No modifications to the chassis are necessary; the treatment is always reversible
• Ability to connect any type of RCA cable yourself, standard or high-end
• Better signal quality possible
• Ability to combine with tonearm wiring upgrade with direct connection to RCA connectors for optimal signal transfer

Also check out the RCA module product video I have on my Instagram page!

Improve signal quality and replace the standard wiring in the tonearm. For example, with high-quality wiring such as OFC (oxygen-free copper) or Litz.

Here's what I'll do for you

• Disassembly of chassis and tonearm
• Removal of original internal wiring
• Installation of new high-quality tonearm wiring of your choice (Litz / OFC)
• Careful soldering of all signal points
• Continuity and signal path check
• Reassembly and adjustment of the tonearm
• Final sound quality test

Result

• Cleaner and more open sound
• Better channel separation
• Less signal loss
• Reliable connection from cartridge to output

Looking for the optimal sound experience? Combine a tonearm wiring upgrade with new audio cables, or the RCA module upgrade.

Problems with your tonearm? Wear or defects can occur at various points in the tonearm and tonearm base. I carry out targeted repairs to the tonearm of your Technics turntable, depending on the specific problem.

Examples of repairs

• Replacement of S-shaped tonearm tube
• Replacement of connectors at the front of the tonearm
• Replacement of bearings or complete tonearm assembly
• Overhaul of the height adjustment system
• Repairing play in bearings
• Repair of wiring in the tonearm

Are you unsure about the condition of your tonearm? Contact me for diagnosis and advice.

Many of the Technics decks I see are decades old. During such a period, electronic components can wear out. Capacitors, for example. A 'full recap' offers a solution.
