Intro: DIY turntable with amp preamp and buffer in wooden case
One day I found old and broken
dual hifi with turntable of funny shape. I checked mechanism of turntable and it was ok. Then the idea came to me that I can fulfill my dream of making my own hifi with
turntable in wooden case with mechanism I found.
I knew in start that I want wooden case and that it cant be just square box. When I saw that turntable it gave me solution for the shape of case.
I didnt have any experience in electronics or woodworking before I started this project so it took me many long months in learning analyzing and frustration. I burned
some electronic parts few times and made them from the beginning.
Turntable was not enough. I wanted also an amp, and with amp also goes preamp.
For amp I decided to go with ganclone lm3886 chipamp. After some digging through ebay i found 6n3 tube buffer and MV02 Motorized Remote Volume Control Input KIT
. I love nixies and i knew that one would add up to steampunk look.
I also needed preamp for RIAA correction for turntable. I found Very Simple Phono Stage which was enough for me.

Step 7: Conclusion
From a piece of trash
to the beauty with beast inside!
It started from the broken hifi, developed as idea and finished as beautiful piece. Project took me few months and money out of pocket but it was worth.
I wouldnt be able to finish it without my friend Vex who is specialist in audio and electronic field, my boss Rajko who is specialist in all sorts of electronics and my
girlfriend Tasa which gave me support to finish this project.
I will give the price list but this is very rough since i lost count how many times i connected something wrong way and had to buy it again.
Buffer - 20$
Preamp - 50$
Gainclone - 30$
Sheet of plywood - 30$
12v 1A transformer for motor - 5$
12v 5A transformer for buffer and preamp - 20$
2x12v 2A transformer for VSPS preamp - 15$
2x30v 5A toroid transformer for gainclone - 40$
Sum: ~210$. But again, this is very rough calculation without tools and spare parts.
