ADC 1700DD Turntable Restoration - The Controls
About these controls - Power / speed knob
The aesthetic seems to be knobs and buttons. There is no power switch, per-se. It's more of a main speed selector.
What's interesting is that there's no indication that it's 'ON' until you move the tonearm over the record. Then the Power light illuminates, and the platter starts spinning. So, select the record speed first. Unit is on, but no power light (yet). Got it.
Nice feature, at the end of the record side, the turntable automatically returns the tonearm to the rest and stops the platter. A feature some modern high-end tables seem to be missing.
