Where do I get an arm plate for the SL1200 so I can mount other arms? The only source I know of is in the UK and the price of the plate is about $145 USD plus shipping and waiting. Not that the price is unacceptable but it would be nice if there were a US supplier.
I'm thinking of the Jelco 750D tonearm (last photo) as it is a higher mass tonearm possibly making it a better match for the Denon DL103 cartridges. I wonder what arm plate olddude55 used for his linear tracker on the SL1200. ??
My "other" SL1210mk2 in pieces
The bearing is super simple to remove. Remove the round cover plate. Now unplug the connectors and cables from the circuit board, unscrew the 3 circuit board screws, unscrew the 3 screws surrounding the top of the bearing and lift off the round cover. Lift the circuit board and remove the bearing assembly.
Removing the arm requires complete disassembly
Remove the heavy rubber bottom. Remove the heavy composite material middle section. Remove the tonearm assembly.
Tonearm and motor bearing removed.
SL1210mk2 partially reassembled waiting for me to decide what to do next.
Jelco 750D arm black chrome finish and DL103 cartridge. Note the arm plate.

- Effective Length of Jelco SA-750D not the same as Rega tonearms. - B.K. 07:37:29 01/17/10 (1)
