AMI Amplifier?
by Jamie McElroy 31 Jul '23

31 Jul '23

Hello all, I recently rebuilt my AMI G-80 amplifier. I replaced all the capacitors and Ive noticed that I am getting a little humming from my speaker and a little squelchy noise from time to time when my records play. Does anyone have any thoughts? Thanks as always Jamie

Anyone care to fill me in on a wholesale price for a vinyl OMT. Supposed to be in near mint condition. I forgot to ask if it has color cylinders or those stupid twinkle lights. If you don't care to post prices you are welcome to email me off the list. Thanks, Tony

Re: Shure cartridge and stylus

The M44MR is a perfect fit. You can tailor your C or 7 to fit by slicing away carefully the top plastic around the 2 screw mounts and then it will sit up in the arm recess the same as the MR does. It adjusts much easier then in terms of not hitting the gripper arm, and raising the correct height when the song has ended.

And that's another trouble I was having, the body of the M44-7 I have now it's just a little bit too narrow to fit correctly. I'll look for the M44-MR, there's some web site selling it...? -- Federico Croci wiz(a)tilt.it www.tilt.it

Shure cartridge and stylus
by Federico Croci 20 Mar '23

20 Mar '23

Hello everyone! I found a Shure M44-7 cartridge installed on my AMI Continental 2. I'd like to fit it with a N44-C stylus, as some of the 45 records I use are obviously not in very good conditions; I'd like to find out if I can reduce the skips and jumps I have when playing them. My question is - if I install a replacement N44-C stylus on a M44-7 cartridge, I'll have the correct tracking force for the N44-C stylus, or I should install it on a M44-7 cartridge for better results? I'm interested in the tracking force alone, small differences in audio quality does not really matter. The tracking force should be a matter of the stylus installed, not the cartridge, am I correct...? Thanks...! -- Federico Croci wiz(a)tilt.it www.tilt.it

Tri Flow as a record lube
by wschaefer rileycopc.com 20 Mar '23

Hi Jim, Tell me more about using Tri Flow as a record lube. I too have noticed the white dust on my Eric 45s but have just lived with it. Does Tri Flow negatively affect the needle? Thanks, Bill Schaefer Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2023 10:29:33 +0000 (UTC) From: JIM & LAURIE DIRKSEN <dirksenj(a)bellsouth.net> Subject: [Jukebox-list] Re: Eric Records 45RPM record sale To: Jukebox mailing list <jukebox-list(a)lists.netlojix.com> Cc: Ed Inman <edinman(a)earthlink.net> Message-ID: <866410693.795841.1679048973938(a)mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 The ERIC pressings are soft polystyrene and wear out quickly. You can watch record dust appear as it plays. Someone here mentioned using "tri-flow" as a lubricant for polystyrene records and I've been using it with no issues.

Thanks for the infos... yes, I'll go with a C stylus. My Conti2 is from Microtecnica, very nice jukebox, but not easy to adjust to play fine.. I'm also looking for the two metal bumpers bar in the back, they are missing. Maybe someone made some replacements...? Bye, -- Federico Croci wiz(a)tilt.it www.tilt.it
