Functional Condition of this turntable is excellent with a couple of small exceptions. When the turntable is plugged in, the platter begins spinning immediately. The start and stop buttons are both unresponsive. Therefore, the auto functions are not working. Manual play of the turntable produces fantastic performance. You could put the power cord into a switched outlet and use it as it is in manual mode. Alternatively, I'm sure this could be easily repaired. We have not attempted to diagnose or repair at this point. First offering AS-IS for repair.


Cosmetic condition rating is 7/10. The only wear I see are some light scratches on the dustcover and a little bit of wear at the corners of the plinth where the dustcover makes contact with it. Otherwise, it is pristine.

This rating is based on the very conservative Audiogon rating scale as shown below. Please view all of our high-resolution photos for full details of the cosmetic condition as well as exactly what is included. If something is not clear, please inquire with us prior to purchase.
