Thanks for this information. If I can find a source for the idlers, I
might start repairing these again.


The last I saw, PRB still had idlers available for these things. If not,
Dave Dintenfass will occasionally put together a group buy on the Ampex
Mailing List to have new pinch rollers fabbed up... whoever he has doing
that can probably make you Dual idlers too.

The nice thing about the Dual idlers is that there are only a couple
different sizes for all their models.

But really.... the whole autochanger idea is so wrong...

I just have to correct you a bit Scott. The problem has got nothing with autochanger, Dual 621 doesn't even has this option. Problem is with automatic start so you don't have to manually put the needle on the record. And second, the needle won't get on starting position once it reach the end section of the record.
But I agree with you that autochanger is not friendly to records
