For sale is my Hercules Mose II outboard power supply for the Linn LP12 turntable.  This outboard supply is as pictured with the power supply, outboard case, umbilical for attaching power supply to turntable, in-turntable connection board, and two-speed switch.  Does NOT include standard AC mains power/mains cable with IEC connector (it was not originally supplied by the manufacturer with one either, so I used my own).  This power supply provided steady 33 1/3 and 45 rpm with my circa 1985 Linn LP12 (originally with Valhalla supply).  This was a great upgrade from Valhalla, providing 45 rpm play without having to use the fiddly pulley adaptor.  Only selling because I "upgraded" a couple of years back to a Linn Lingo 2 (surface mount components).  The Lingo gets up to speed slightly quicker than the Hercules, but sound quality wise, I honestly couldn't really tell them apart.  My speedchecker disc indicated both the Hercules and the Lingo are very accurate at both 33 1/3 and 45.  The case is in generally good condition, as pictured.  A couple of "rub" marks on the top and one side of the case (not through the paint); one small ding through the anodization on the bottom right corner of the faceplate, though not very noticeable when right side up and on its feet (it was received like that from the manufacturer).  Circuit board is in excellent condition, as per pictures.
