Hi
I have an old Studer A807. The record head is 1.318. and has badly worn out and I intend to replace it with a 1.317. which a friend gave me. I came to know that to replace a 1.318 record head with a 1.317, certain modification has to be done. What I realise is this : According to the service manual, a 1.318 head is used with a 1.727.460 audio card and a 1.727.420 is used with a 1.317 head. I checked my audio card and it is a 1.727.420. Therefore I should be able to install this 1.317 head without any modification. Please assist.
