#4 reproducer gaskets needed

Post by estott »

I've got an HMV #4 reproducer to rebuild. Who's a good source for new gaskets and an isolator?

(BTW- it's on an HMV 109- very nice)

Soundgen on ebay had some really nice ones. He was out of stock. I've asked him recently if he has them again but so far no reply.

I just redid it with Exhibition gaskets and it's greatly improved- much rounder tone and less blasting, even on a Richard Crooks record. Managed to get it apart without breaking anything.
