Can I use the Walker Audio precision motor controller with the Avid Volvere turntable?


Like the title said, I appreciate your help please.
Thanks,

dob, The OP has an Avid turntable and wants to know whether the Walker Precision Motor Controller can run it.  I don't think he is in the market for a Walker turntable, or etc.  Why do you warn against buying used?  I owned a Walker Precision Motor Controller that I bought off Audiogon and used for more than 10 years and never had the slightest problem with it.  Lloyd was always helpful if I ever had questions, regardless of the fact that I was the second owner.  (In fact, he and I became friends over time. I first contacted him about an upgrade that he had introduced, and he was very cooperative about getting my unit upgraded, again despite the fact that I was not the first owner. He's a great guy.) On two different belt-drive turntables that I owned, it made a world of positive difference, and I would not have lived without it, once I heard its effect.
And I now own Lewm old Walker controller and once I had dialed in the speeds on my Nottingham table it has been rock solid and just added to the depth and breadth of the SQ.

Highly recommended!
Can't speak to the Avid, but I have used the Walker controller for many years now with my Basis Ovation, no problems.  Bought it used, and have had it upgraded by Lloyd.  Lloyd is very helpful and easy to deal with, I'm sure he could answer your question.
Bought my Walker speed controller "preowned" to pair with the Walker TT and, so far, it's bullet proof. I've had my table since 1996 and have never had a single issue with it other than those of my own stupidity/doing. Like others have mentioned, Lloyd is always available to assist (I've talked to him three times this week and will talk to him again tomorrow).
As to the compatibility of the Walker with the Avid Volvere, it suddenly occurred to me that the Volvere may come equipped with its own outboard speed control box, if my own memory of the Volvere is correct.  I don't know what's inside, but that outboard box may render the Walker redundant; you would fine tune the speed using the Volvere box.  In that case, it would not be wise to mess with the AC input to the Volvere proper.
