Support for recently purchased used Walker Proscenium needing TLC...


With Lloyd gone, I am looking for resources for support & questions. So far Fred Law seems un-interested, so I am looking to the community of users / former dealers. I am VERY interested in contacts with knowledge I can tap into.

 

My current key questions...

 

- Sources for the tonearm wire & cartridge clips Lloyd used?

 

- Info on his later air supply, source, specs, manual? Looks like a California Air Tools unit, but they didn't respond with useful info on what Lloyd used.

 

- Damping fluid type & viscosity?

 

- Glue to use to join belt material?

 

- Dimensions of & durometer(s) of the Sorbothane blocks under the Prologue platform?

 

I REALLY, REALLY appreciate any info sources or answers to my questions above!

Definitely a passion project.

Good luck.

Wish I did, but never had the opportunity to experience the legend.

Tom Port of Better Records fame might be worth talking to-- I think he has the turntable and bought the rights to the cleaning fluid system, so he may have some insights to help. 

Ben Jacoby's website claims to work on Walker-- dunno how dated that is. Knew him in a previous life.

Good luck,
