[LabRat]

whats the best way to get it fixed?

am i better off buying a new turntable instead?

[CBG]

ring the manufacturer and ask for a new one. or ring a DJ/vinyl store and ask I reckon

As your in Perth Spitty, try contacting this guy:

He serviced my technics decks and did a great job.

Otherwise you may need to contact Grant Ettrick at EAV in Morley for a tone arm replacement. Hes also very good but can be a bit pricey depending on the repair.

hmm fair.. cheers for the contacts buddy. i'll give em a go

check ebay - i can imagine a new part from panasonic costing a fortune. or contact a repairer, they may have parts salvaged from old tt's much cheaper than a new replacement.

or go all out and put in the rega arms instead, supposed to make a huge difference to quality, albeit at $2-300 just for a 2nd hand arm

also - what do you nmean broken?snapped the arm, bent it? could it be bearings or wires rather than the arm itself?

[LabRat]

the wires inside it are fucked. id fix it myself but i duno how take it apart or whats what in there
