POWER-UP YOUR GARRARD
The Braunton Audio DDS-2 is a Direct Digital Synthesiser to control the frequency of AC supply for Garrard and Lenco turntable motors.
The DDS-2 enables the removal of a major source of motor drive system distortion consistent across all Garrard restorations I’ve had or heard in the past.
The supply voltage is dropped to 195v for less vibration to the motor, without affecting torque. The Eddy Current brake should be disabled as much as possible by setting the Garrard’s lever to “+”, or even better, the eddy disc removed entirely.
I’ve taken this a step further also removing the capstan/ pulley to drive the Idler wheel directly on the motor shaft.
The results were such an improvement I requested an extended frequency range available on the controller to allow 33 and 45RPM with or without the need for a pulley. Along with power supply improvements, Colin perfected the new DDS-2.
The Braunton DDS-2 motor controller gets my unreserved recommendation – Garrards really can compare with the best turntables given the DDS along with essential maintenance and selection of parts.
