I'm using a brass HMV #4 for electrics on my Vic 1! I need to figure out how to make one work on my front mount E. A little plumbing work, mayhaps...
So, I'd be able to swap out my HMV 5Bs with little problem, then? On a Vic I, III, or III?

I'm hoping to find some III's ... but eyeing a II at the moment. I need to get this done by end of year. Tax write off! :P
Supposedly all you need to do for this is swap in a Vic 4 isolator to your 5 reproducer, but that won't work on the Orthophonic repros I have without adding a homemade adapter. I've seen it said more than once on here that just swapping the isolator does it but it doesn't work on my planet.

I think a 4 is great for electrics on these machines.
