Back in the 1990s I bought a Symposium Cylinder Player (Model 1134) from a company that was manufacturing them at the time in England. It has served me well ever since -- until last night when I accidentally disconnected one of the two extremely thin wires that run from the cartridge through the traverse mechanism. When I say extremely small, I mean it: they are about the thickness of a hair. And as the wire is somewhat inaccessible, reconnecting it may well entail dismantling at least some of the machine. In other words, it's an unusual repair job to say the least, and it's unlikely I'd find someone with previous experience with a Symposium machine. Can anyone advise me what kind of specialist I should be looking for to get the machine repaired? I doubt that a run-of-the-mill electronic repair shop would be a good fit. Maybe some kind of scientific laboratory? Someone at a university who might free-lance? I live in the Washington DC area. -- Jack Raymond
