For sale: Brinkmann Lagrange
turntable with Brinkmann 10.5 tonearm and Brinkmann EMT cartridge
Also includes Townshend seismic sink stand (will throw in a pair
of matching Townshend speaker stands too) but only for local collection as they are large and heavy unless you are prepared to additional delivery costs
Accompanied by PS Audio GCPH photo stage (Cullen modified) -
Cullen was the original designer of the stock GCPH and produced much more
expensive hot-rodded versions on the side. Big step up from the standard model
which was already a what hi-fi 5* award winner (FWIW). It takes standard phono
and earth connectors to operate in balanced mode internally with either single
ended or balanced outputs. It has a volume control and very high quality output
stage that will drive a power amp or active crossover direct (I did the
latter). It strongly favours balanced systems and works well into Bryston power
amps.
I will also include a custom made and very high
quality balanced switch to allow you to swap between another balanced and
volume controlled source like a dac which will allow you to do without a
pre-amp altogether if you so desire. This gives a big step up in performance.
Direct to my active crossovers the GCPH easily outperformed a TEAD groove /
vibe combination which is a very serious set-up.
Please note the 3rd party turntable cover is no longer included as it was damaged whilst moving house.
Ancillaries include an audio technica stylus cleaner, a complete set of wally tools and a Racal dana frequency meter which if you use with a test record will allow you to set the deck speed to around about 1-2 Hz or so.
