Fabulous

Very interesting - Sheffield o2 academy

Ah fair enough, thought there had to be some reason

Hi Ray, playing devils advocate, why go DC in the first place? I see no benefit from a noise (hum) point of view. The old man got his quiet as a mouse with it all in one box If it is in regard to having both ac and DC in one umbilical from the psu box then yes i can see it, but why not just have 2 a...

It was in the dual 701

Just won a dual EDS 1000 direct drive motor on ebay. Comes with the associated platter, psu and controls, I reckon I can do something pretty special with it.

Oh and weather report 8:30 wot I played at Owston.
