The ADS design includes two pure analog frequency generators featuring
low distortion and noise; a high current Class-A/B amplifier that is
transformer-coupled to the turntable output; analog control logic for
low noise operation; 33/45 RPM analog speed adjustment controls with
center detent positions that are factory calibrated for 60/81Hz; analog
logic controlled run/stop switching with the output RMS voltage @
120VAC on startup, followed by a step down to 90VAC after an 8 second
delay for quick starting of heavy platters.



Operational features:

The ADS includes a lighted power on/off switch allowing it to remain
powered up during listening sessions for the oscillators to remain
warmed up for lowest distortion. There is a separate run/stop switch to
control the motor operation. The ADS also utilizes separate 60 Hz and
81 Hz oscillators to eliminate unnecessary switching circuitry in the
oscillator circuits for long term speed stability and low oscillator
distortion. Turntable speed is chosen using a switch located between
the 33 RPM and 45 RPM speed adjustment controls; LEDs indicate the
Run/Stop condition and chosen speed. Speed adjustment controls provide a
center detent position that is factory calibrated to 60 and 81Hz +/-
.02 Hz in their center detented position. The controls also provide fine
speed adjustment of approximately 3 Hz through continuously variable
linear adjustment controls. The circuitry provides a startup voltage of
approximately 120VAC for 8 seconds on startup to assist quick speed ramp
of heavier platters, then reduces to 92VAC for its steady state run
voltage.



Speed Control and adjustment:

The front panel contains a two-position push button switch for selecting
either 33 RPM or 45 RPM operation. Pressing the switch either latches
it in or releases the switch to its outward position for 33 RPM
operation. There are separate speed adjustment controls for 33 and 45
RPM. The controls have a detented center position that is factory
calibrated for 60 Hz (33 RPM) and 81 Hz (45 RPM). The speed is also
continuously adjustable +/- 3 Hz for fine tuning of the platter speed
using a stroboscopic disk and 60 HZ light source. Blue LED indicators
adjacent to the controls indicate which speed is set at a glance.



Motor Stop and Run:

The ADS is meant to be left powered on during the listening session. The
platter is started and stopped by the front panel Run/Stop momentary
push button switch. There is an LED indicator the glows red when
stopped and green when the platter is turning.



System power:

There is an IEC power module on the rear panel to supply AC power to the
ADS. The IEC module contains a fuse drawer that holds a 1-amp slow
blow fuse protecting the ADS from electrical system malfunctions. AC
power to the ADS is controlled by the power switch located on the
left-hand side of the front panel. When the ADS is powered up, the
indicator in the switch glows blue indicating the internal power
supplies are functioning properly.



Output to Turntable:

The 125 VAC max output to the motor is supplied by the identified AC
receptacle on the rear panel. The receptacle output provides a maximum
20 watts. Higher wattage loads will seriously damage the ADS.
