Hi all! I hope everyone had a happy and safe New Year. Perhaps someone can help me out here. I recently acquired a Dance reproducer. It appears to be untouched since it left the factory. No the odd thing is, the diaphragm inside is of the standard Edison type, and there is no spring that joins the top of the reproducer to that crossbar that is at the top of the sound tube(nor was there ever, it appears, and no provision for it) I have rebuilt several of these over the years, and they all had the spring loaded diaphragm. Does anyone know if this was perhaps the way it was issued(we all know old Tom was tight) during the time of the introduction of the Edisonic? I would like to restore it to it's original configuration, but I can find no outlet that offers the proper diaphragm or the spring. Any and all help would be appreciated. I also am in need of a Victor tone-arm rear bracket for a Victor IV thru VI.
