closed his business. I once tried to help him fix a customer's Forte amplifier that caught fire, but Forte would not cooperate with me. I was able to purchase a large container of a spice in Alaska that he wanted, but no help with hifi. Mr. Tu always had music playing on his AR-XA turntable, but I forget the amplifier and speakers. He mostly serviced equipment he had previously sold and had very little new things for sale. There was a great CD store close to him that sold audiophile quality CDs.

I just realized that the ceramic transducer must be insulated from the stainless steel to prevent a short between the bottom of the transducer and the stainless steel wall. I don't think the transducers sold online provide an insulating material. That's something that I may still have to research and may need that one last answer from the company in Taipei. I believe the insulating materIal must be rigid instead of flexible.

I have researched how to remove the old transducer, and I feel confident that I can do it.

I also purchased this excellent vacuum cleaning machine in Taipei at a store near Zhongxiao street and Luoyang street.

That's just over 4%. One would think that would be just fine. - viridian 11:57:15 08/13/20 (2)
