Over the summer, I found an old KLH Model 20 turntable in the closet of my (extended) family's vacation home. It looked a little dirty, and the needle was broken, but the turntable spun. I took it home, thinking to restore it, and promptly forgot about it. I just rediscovered it this morning.
Looking inside, it seems nice and modular. The power supply, pre-amp, power amp, etc, are all on separate boards. The schematic is included on the bottom of the case. My immediate thought was to replace all of the electrolytics with newer ones, and replace the wimpy power cord with something a little more safe-seeming. Anything else I should do? What needle/cartridge should I buy for it?
