  • Technics Direct Drive SL-3300 / 3310 Turntable, Serviced Recapped New Covers

    I have sold well over 1000 Technics Turntables over the last ten years and know these models VERY well. For this particular turntable I stripped all of the internals out so I could paint the plinth flat black (that’s what would make the table a 3310 in the Technics lineup).

  • Technics SL-23 & SL-20 Speed Repair Kit Capacitor Upgrade Set Turntable Recap

    Up for sale here is this recap kit for the Technics SL-20 or SL-23 turntable. This is all the capacitors you need to rebuild the two circuit boards on a Technics SL-20 or SL-23. The old capacitors often get leaky, resulting in speed issues. These turntables will often have many other issues, and this kit comes with detailed instructions that will explain how to solve most problems that an SL-20 or SL-23 can have. This kit includes all 6 capacitors for the speed control board, as well as one capacitor to replace the one on the power supply board. The old cap is axial (one lead at each end), but the new one is radial (both leads at one end, and it will fit in perfectly. These are all high-quality brand new genuine parts, the same parts I use when I work on vintage stereo gear. I will include surprisingly well-written instructions, but this is a mildly complicated job, and you should know what you’re doing and have a decent soldering iron, as well as Deoxit D5 or a similar contact cleaner. This kit is for the Technics SL-20 and SL-23 only–it will not work for other turntables. Please see my pictures for details. US shipping and handling is $5, and international is $18, no matter what quantity you buy. All my small parts are set up for combined shipping, so just use the “add to cart” feature and then check out all at once, and it will combine shipping. If you have any questions, please ask. Looking for more parts? I have power switches, feet, pushbuttons, top case screws, bottom screws, faceplate screws, white LED fuse lamps, blue LED fuse lamps, 6.3v bi-pin bulbs, 8v bi-pin bulbs, 12v bi-pin bulbs, wired 8v 60ma bulbs, new power cords, new main capacitors for the Marantz 1060/2230, wired Pioneer speaker plug replacements, new 630v yellow film capacitors at 38 different values, new 1200v yellow film capacitors at 15 values, a large variety of transistors for vintage stereo repair, new Wima film capacitors for stereo repair, new 250v yellow film crossover capacitors, and more.

  • Technics SL-D1 SL-D2 SL-D3 K Speed Repair Kit Capacitors Turntable Recap Set

    Up for sale here is this complete recap kit for the Technics SL-D1, SL-D2, SL-D3, and SL-D3K turntable. This is all the capacitors you need to recap the main circuit board in the SL-D1, SL-D2, SL-D3, and SL-D3K. The old capacitors start getting leaky and the transistors go bad, resulting in speed issues. This will take care of most of the circuit-board-related issues you will see with these turntables, except if you have a bad AN630U chip. One major problem with these turntables is that the AN630U IC chip can go bad, which will result in speed issues as well. Unfortunately there is no modern replacement for this chip, so if you recap your board and the speed is still acting up then you may need to find a used chip, which is fairly difficult, though it was used in a lot of Technics turntables. Leaky capacitors can damage this chip, so even if your turntable is working, you should still recap it. This kit includes replacements for all electrolytic capacitors on the boards. These are extremely high-quality parts, the same ones I use when I work on vintage stereo gear. Capacitors are Nichicon PW, Panasonic FC, and Wima film caps. The 470 uf axial cap is replaced with a new radial capacitor, which fits perfectly. I will include surprisingly well-written instructions, but this is moderately complicated, and you should know what you’re doing and have a decent soldering iron. Please see my pictures for details.
