Re: [ARSCLIST] SP-15

[Cary Ginell <soundthink@xxxxxxx>]

My Technics SP-15 has been morosely sitting in the garage, surrounded by thousands of 78s that it is unable to play. Same deal. An IC chip went out. I took out town to the Technics plant in L.A. and they basically laughed at me for wanting to get it fixed and then said they don't have any parts at all for these turntables.

My condolences.?
In my case it was the IC going kablooie (highly technical term, that), alas.?
I found another SP-15 on eBay for around $200. Considerably less that I spent om the original!?
