Tru-Lift tonearm lifter for Technics


Someone recently asked if the Tru-Lift Tonearm Lifter is available for the Technics SL-1200g.  The answer is yes and will be available the week of Feb 25.  The manufacturer is www.integrityhifi.ca in Canada.  Their products are only available thru authorized dealers who are listed on their website.  They may send you a picture of the Tru-lift on the Technics if you ask.  

I purchased one from Element Electronics in Vancouver, BC today and am just answering the question asked by another Audiogon member.   
For you information.

I have a few black KAB fluid dampers that i don't use anymore, i think they are only collect dust, because the a silicon fluid bath is open all the time, in a few years of regular use it's a disaster (full of dust). I think it took me 7 years to deny this solution, i just removed them last year.

How often do you guys change silicone fluid completely ? 

This is one of the reson i don't like tonearms with open fluid damper.

I purchased mine about 3 months ago. I hadn’t thought about dust.

I don’t use Dust Cover on my Technics, actually i don’t use dust cover on any turntables. But that silicone fluid is sticky and dust will be there anyway soon, after a year or two it looks awful.

As for that Canadian lift i have no idea why anyone should buy it if very similar lift made in Japan by Audio-Technica is much cheaper? AT product is always a top quality: https://www.audio-technica.com/cms/accessories/398e4995e9bfe926/index.html
