A great find there - I used to run some original Tablettes bi-amped with Magnum Pre, 2 mono blocks & a stereo power amp - great sound. Poor man's Naim! Regarding your problem, have you checked the relay itself? You could pop off it's plastic cover and manually operate it.

Saw one once and could not believe how much the disc wobbled. Bought a Pioneer Stable platter CDP - it's a no-brainer! Used as a transport.

Adam raised a Cain from Loose Windscreens Darkness on the Edge of Town - thank God for CD so I can skip this dirge

I usd to have a Xindak CD with valve output and that was very musical. I replaced that with a Pioneer Stable-platter CDP used as a transport into a Maverick D1+ DAC which has both SS & valve outputs (the best $100 s/h that I have ever spent) This is a very good combo and is very listenable &...
