I don't know wether it looks "advanced" or not (not to my eyes, at least) but the double-spring motor surely doesn't come from a crap-o.

I bet it does, though... I used to have a crapophone that had a double spring motor. But, it was still very clearly a cheap Indian repro motor. Loud as all heck, but it ran evenly.

Hi Marco, sorry I meant the comment sarcastically: this home made item, like our typical crapophones is not very good.Marco Gilardetti wrote:I don't know wether it looks "advanced" or not (not to my eyes, at least) but the double-spring motor surely doesn't come from a crap-o.

Oh, sorry, I got it know: you meant this one is so awful that, by comparison, an indian crap-o looks good, isn't it? At first I thought that the unit pictured was indeed some new "novelty model" coming from India.US PHONO wrote:Hi Marco, sorry I meant the comment sarcastically
Oh, my... I thought they only used ultra-cheap "one springers". What shall we see next?winsleydale wrote:I bet it does, though... I used to have a crapophone that had a double spring motor. But, it was still very clearly a cheap Indian repro motor. Loud as all heck, but it ran evenly.
