Hello guys, will this head work well in my echo 230? Or will it be too heavy for it?

Yes It will work. Although larger, I prefer this bump type feed over others. Have used it on mine for many years.

I have 2 of these running on a Pioneer 1000.1 D class amp. They may be able to handle more but you don't want to over power them and burn up the voice coil. I am a big Pioneer fan but there are other more affordable amps to pick from.

I have an older echo 315 and it was a perfect fit. I think it fits all three series echo saws. In my opinion Oregon chains and bars are the best.

Pair it with a decent shockmount and it will hold it's own surprisingly well . . . If you're going to be hard hitting it or taping for hours every day I'd recommend something a lot more substantial (and internally pre-wired) but for occasional / light use this is one of the better bangs for your buck IMHO.

I bought the original replacement TurboCat head because it sounded like the Pro (from what I read) was a little taller. Just even a little taller would prevent the head from getting under some furniture (i.e., end tables, etc.). If that is not an issue for you then you can go either way.

absolutely not,of course it will make it move but the basS will be Weak and can minD screw you and make you think that's as good as it gets I highly recommend something more solid like HCCA amp or Fosgate, extant etc one of those nothing less than 2000 RMS according to your Impedance

Wasn't familiar with the PL-518, so I looked at the unit online. Looks like it should work. The Shure has the standard 2 screw attachment points, like the Pioneer headshell I saw online. My original intent was to use the old headshell from my 80's Technics TT, but the wires on the Shure were beefier than on my old headshell. I purchased a generic one from a local record shop (really), but you can find them on Amazon also. I've never owned a Stanton 680EE or other Stanton products. I found a rave review for this unit, however, so I'm sure you're happy with it. The Shure M97xE was a bit of a compromise for me, I found it for under $70 and it was reviewed well, so I went for it instead of the AT440MLA @ $140. I'm very happy with the Shure unit, and truth be told, I use my garage stereo more than my living room stereo, so I guess I'm not that picky anyway. Of course the AT440MLA is over $200 now, so kinda wish I bought it back then. Hope you find something good at Record Store Day tomorrow. Clark

I bought a heavy duty .95 diameter line and it worked great with the head. It's worked great for me and the heavy duty line I seldom have to change. No problems. I hope this helps.

as long as you are carefull... its not a fluid head, but it is a real good standard head.. Depends on how smooth & consistent U need to be

Be careful. Not all heads are compatible. I researched Amazon.com and asked if they carried my brand but just werent advertizing it at the moment and got lucky. Most are NON-REFUNDABLE. So be careful. I didn't order until I made sure they were a match. Hope this helps.

I'm afraid I can't help u in that I've never seen one for sale. My general experience with equipment or power tools of this sort is they don't make cases for them and I own quite a number of high end or semi high end"stuff." I keep my ECHO inside two heavy ply refuse bags in the shed. Sorry to be unhelpful.

I would suggest going to the echo website to check this out... I had to go by the physical size and rotation specs on my trimmer to ascertain that this would work..

The head is 35mm which will probably make it too big for jewelry making. It does weigh a lb. It is not bad too handle.

This head is specifically designed for use on systems with low pressure. It will work well on systems with high pressure as well. There should be no reason to modify it.

We are using the head for a Kowa spotting scope that weighs 1520g (53.6oz). Its a good head for that weight.

Yes. I hang my Echo SRM-230 from it. The powerhead rests on the hanger with the trim head towards the floor.
