G. 99

The Goldring G.99 transcription unit has been developed particularly for those
High-Fidelity enthusiasts who require a unit of high transcription quality, but wish to
use a transcription arm of their own choice. It offers complete freedom in mounting
arrangements.

The' 6.99 ' is styled in the modern idiom bya famous industrial designer. It has many
highly successful mechanical features, such as infinite variable speed adjustment
and automatic disengagement of the idler wheel.

The hardened steel centre spindle runs in a sintered bronze bush with a special thrust
pad. The 4-pole constant velocity motor limits changes in turntable speed to less than
1% for up to 13% change in line voltage. Rumble and hum are negligible. Maximum
wow and flutter is 0.2%. The turntable, which is die-cast from zinc alloy, is non-
magnetic and weighs 8 lbs. A thick rubber mat is fitted. Another feature is the push-
button on/off switch, which also engages and disengages the drive. A neon pilot light
gives the ' 99 ' an added refinement. The switch circuit is entirely click suppressed. A
vertical idler wheel transmits drive from the motor to the underside of the turntable. The
speed is infinitely variable over the range 30/80 rpm. and from 15/18 rpm. and is
altered by means of a rotary knob which, by a system of gears and levers, moves the
idler wheel along a conical drive shaft of the motor. A neon-lit stroboscope is built into
the unit and very accurate speed settings are possible.
