Check your local trophy display case manufacturer, or plexiglass business for decent deals on fresh covers. You'll save a lot of $ on shipping.
You can have the look and feel of the factory dust-cover with these professionally manufactured replacements.
These covers will fit virtually all Technics tables that have break prone plastic tabs. The height is designed for the D2, Q2, 3200, etc. series but can also be used to replace the smaller in height covers. Contact me for more info.
Contact me for shipping information to the lower 48 U.S. states. I ship via UPS insured, double boxed, 22 x 22 x 18.
Superb fit and finish on these aluminum tabs. Very professional finish. Your friends will think they're factory.
Just as the dust covers these will fit virtually any Technics model that uses the plastic tabs.
Contact me for more information regarding installing instructions. But if you can use a Dremel type tool and a drill you should have no problems!
This modification still allows for the use of 33 and 45 rpm. An inconspicuous switch is installed at the rear of the table which allows for the use of 78 rpm.
I sell under the username of oldschoolaudio64 on eBay if you prefer the seller protection that eBay offers, Be aware that the prices will be slightly higher to offset the eBay seller fees.
If you have a Technics table that needs repair or are looking to purchase a vintage table, I would be more than happy to assist you or answer any of your questions. I started restoring Technics turntables in 2006, and have sold over 1000 units to date.
I have replaced all of the electrolytic capacitors in each table with fresh quality components. When possible I use film caps to replace any of the lower uf stock caps. Film caps have higher tolerances and are self healing. Newer cap technology is a win. All of the speed and speed selector switches and potentiometers are deoxed with Dn5. Both of these processes lead to excellent speed control.
My inventory changes weekly and I'm always getting new units in. I work and sell out of my house but am available from mid afternoon on most days of the week and usually all day weekends.

All of my inventory goes through a strict inspection and restore process. I replace any old lubricant with Superlube, clean all speed pots with CRC QD contact cleaner, lube the main motor bearings, and address any other issues that a particular table may have. All of my tables are 100% operational and I give you a choice of the cartridge

You have a lot of options to choose from when deciding what brand and type of turntable you want to purchase. So why Technics? My main reason is two fold. Sound quality and reliability. You can purchase a turntable from many locations. I feel you should choose me because I sell a quality product and will continue to assist you after the sale.
Shuichi Obata (engineer for Panasonic) invented direct drive tables back in 1969. In a direct drive table the motor is located directly under the center of the platter and is connected to the platter directly. It is a significant advancement over older belt driven tables
The higher the rumble number for a turntable the better the sound quality. For wow & flutter it's the opposite, the lower the number the better. By reviewing my Technics Table Production header you can see that the direct drive units have excellent specs.
This may be more of an opinion, but I chose to sell and repair Technics tables because I feel strongly that the build quality is better than other brands I have encountered.
I dislike the word "restoration" because it means different things to different individuals. Some people slap a belt on and say a table is restored. The minimum I do, is thoroughly clean all switches and potentiometers with Deox, remove any old grease and replace with fresh lubricant, replace all of the electrolytic capacitors, set up the tonearm for proper functionality (oil the bearings), polish both RCA ends as well as the tonearm to headshell contacts, tighten the dustcover hinges, and of course check for full functionality.
All of my inventory goes through a thorough cleaning process. I buff and polish all my dustcovers and attempt to remove all imperfections and scratches.
