Third Party turntable motors


When needing a new motor for a turnatble does it make sense to go for a third party motor. I have heared of the Origin Live motor from the UK a few weeks ago. I know one of you has it installed on a Oracle Delphi. Anyone else into puchasing third party motors. I believe VPI sells motors separately. My assumption is that it would be cost effective to buy a motor from a company that produces them for a number of manufacturers or can fit on a number of different tables such as Origin Live, rather than to buy directly from your turntable assembler.

I have an OL motor for my Townshend Rock 7. Haven’t installed it yet. Have to make a new motor housing top plate.

Installed the SOTA motor package on my VPI Classic 3. Improved, smoother presentation. The Roadrunner/tach are very welcome over the ADS.
