Hello Al, Was the carriage reducer or adapter was made for the recorder? I have found on my Triumph with the large carriage that some CHK reproducers sit too low. I corrected this by placing a 0.020 wire in the reducer/adapter under where the C will sit. Having all the carriages for the standard being interchangeable is wonderful, it allows my Standard A to test out any reproducer from the standard speaker to the diamond B. So far the only standard carriages I need to complete the set is the one for the E and F. The one I have for the ICS has the shaver casting that was not drilled out. I saw one of the early Amberolas (the one with the fireside motor) on eBay that played both 2 and 4 minute.
