In the photo is the thin plate that is extra to this reproducer the actual insulating factor? I have a gold reproducer that has that extra plate inserted. I believe someone told me that reproducer originally was designed for the stop. It also has an extra long limit pin at the front.Lenoirstreetguy wrote:Here's a pic of the business end of Duncan stop reproducer. You will note from the dust in the hole that I haven't used the stop in quite some time. The Duncan reproducers are designed so that the floating weight is insulated electrically from the body of the reproducer. This is my " best" DD reproducer...that is to say the one with the best original diaphragm. I've got it on the C200 at the moment. Its own machine is in storage. It was my first phonograph and even though it looks like a woodshed fell on it...because one DID fall on it ....I love it irrationally and some day I'll restore it.
