Archival info on tone arm setup

October 10th, 2016, 5:19 pm

I was going through some old papers and found a sheet that Mitchell cotter of the Varion step up transformer and Cotter turntable fame sent to Dick Sequerra. Dick sent me a copy many years ago. I scanned it and am including it in case anyone is interested. It may have been supplanted by now but it is interesting to see the hand drawings and charts.

I have Mitch Cotters' transformer. But that was not his only claim to fame. His use of mil-spec cabling -- band-pass filters -- low-noise pre-amps -- mil-spec parts -- turntable isolation -- just to name a few.

He was ahead of his time and his designs are valid to this day.

I met Mitch several times at Dick's place when he was still in Long Island. Very knowledgeable guy.
