Someone in Chicago to help with Maplenoll Ariadne?


I have a Maplenoll Ariadne with the Signature kit with scud air chamber. My air handling is not good because I can hear leaks at the junctions of the hoses. Is there someone in the area who could help me with this? I tried buying hose clamps at Home Depot but they are too large. Any help would be sincerely appreciated and compensated. I have both the original pump and another quiet pump. Bob

Thanks everyone for the wonderful posts. I had totally forgotten about Lawarence Harasim for this project. Lawrence, I am so glad that you posted. Lawrence is amazing with what he can do with audio equipment. He has repaired and built almost anything audio related. He contacted me privately and told me that he used to have this turntable. I shouldn't be surprised because he has had almost everything. Anyway, I am in very good hands with Lawrence and can't recommend him highly enough. This thread worked better than I would have imagined.

Lew, Glad you like the Beveridges. The funny thing is that I bought them from Lawrence. That is how we originally met! Would love to hear your impressions because I am trying to resurrect a pair of the Beveridge 2's. I must admit that I do miss the Beveridges. Probably the most fun I ever had with a piece of audio gear. They definitely can be temperamental. Only guys like Lawrence can really repair them. He has had a number of pairs of these great speakers. My recollection is that you had a number of pairs of electrostats like the Soundlabs and others. Hope you are enjoying your music these days. Bob
