Data[edit]
General
- Manufacturer: Grundig
- Model: PS 3000
- Type: Record player
- Years of manufacture: 1980 - 1981
- Manufactured in:
- Color: Silver, Brown Metallic
- Power consumption: 3,5 W
- Dimensions: 420 x 141 x 348 mm (WxHxD)
- Weight: approx. 5 kg
- Original price approx.: 450 DM
Connections
- Outputs: Cable with 5-pin DIN plug
- Inputs: -
Technical data
- Drive: Belt drive
- Motor: DC motor, controlled by tachogenerator
- Speed: 33 1/3, 45 rpm
- Synchronization fluctuations: < 0.08% (DIN), < 0.05% (WRMS)
- Rumble noise ratio: better -43 dB (DIN A), better -65 dB (DIN B)
- Turntable: Aluminium
- Operating mode: fully automatic
- Pitch: yes, for both speeds separately adjustable +/- 3% each
- Tonearm: straight tonearm with removable headshell; 1/2" mounting for cartridge
- Cartridge: Philips Super M II GP 400 II
Special Features
- 'DIRECT CONTROL' drive system, combining the advantages of belt and direct drive. The belt drive is controlled by a tachogenerator in the drive pulley. This ensures a constant speed even when the load on the drive varies, e.g. due to cleaning brushes, temperature or mains fluctuations.
- Tonearm balance integrated in the locking position socket.
- Adjustable tracking force and antiskating. Separate scales for spherical and elliptical needle grind available for antiskating.
- Sprung sub-chassis with three leaf springs coupled to the frame.
- Speed deviations are indicated by a LED display with three LEDs. When the center LED alone is lit, the selected speed is being accurately maintained.
- Mechanical limit switch
Remarks[edit]
- Identical in construction to Philips AF 777
- The stock headshell has a 1/2" hole spacing but no slotted holes, so only Philips Super M II series cartridges fit accurately. In order to be able to use cartridges from other manufacturers, Philips produced a 1/2" universal headshell with slotted holes, order number 4822 402 60627.
