- Notes
-
Similar to Black Box BBH Mk2 but using PCL83 and Metal rectifier rather than EL41 and EZ41, i.e. Mono Ultra Linear Push Pull. Also adds tweeters.
Uses Garrad turnatable and GC8 cartridge. A different cartridge is supplied for Tropics (is this the BBT/A?).
Export versions to 60Hz countries include an extra pulley which can be retro fitted.
The schematic for the BBT/A is identical and the same Pye service booklet covers both.
Speeds: 16, 33, 45 & 78.
