WANTED: rubber insert for Victor front mount elbows

Post by phono-farm »

I need a rubber insert for my Victor E front mount elbow. I like the look of those sold by phonographs.org, but their website says they are out of stock. Is there another source for these?
Thanks,
Greg Farmer

Hey Greg,

What I have done is trim a piece of rubber from a damaged rubber farm boot. They have a fabric-like texture to the inside of the boot, which makes installation of the reproducer throat a snap. Simply trim a piece that fits nicely inside the elbow, and glue in place with rubber cement. Ta-daaa!
