Head shell for the MA-701, MA-707 / CF-1. I don’t have them. Many, many people ask me. I cannot help them. If the head shell is still working, but the finger lift is broken, then you can repair it with a new finger lift. (Project finger lift; see picture) Resellers. Can resellers sell their products using this website? Yes, but only resellers who make new Micro-Seiki parts. They will get an own page on this website. Examples can be found under “Shopping” If you need Aramis Faser, you can order them at: grfranz@gmx.de Feet Repair. There are two options: 1. Look at: http://my-micro.de/tips-fuss500.htm (Very good solution; original repair parts; But optical the model changes) 2. Alternative: It is nowadays almost impossible to replace original legs so you'll have to find an alternative. The solution I found is in terms of sound and technique perfect and is a look alike of the original. Look at the pictures and see what materials are used and on what models it's placed. Picture 1 and 2 show the material; I bought wooden casters at the local tool shop and removed the rubbers. The rubber rings are mounted on Vibrapods. You have to buy the right Vibrapod for your Micro Seiki; there are 5 versions of the Vibrapod, each suitable for an certain weight. Look at www.needledoctor.com for the right ones. Picture left show the reparation on BL-91, DDX-500 and DDQ-1000. The procedure: Unscrew the lower part of the legs. Remove the old cushion. Put away the screw for later use. Place the rubber ring on the Vibrapod. Use the screw to secure all. If the screw is too short use a longer one. If need be, use a small ring. Mount the new turntable leg under your Micro-Seiki. Tip: the Vibrapods are very sticky! I use baby powder to avoid damages on table or Vibrapods.
