For auction is this stunning EX BBC RP2/9/170 Twin Disk Reproducer in excellent working order.

This original retro dual turntable unit was designed and built by the BBC during the late 1970s.



The console comprises of -

 Technics SP-10 Mk2-P/RP2/9 Turntables

(Each mounted on oak motorboards that are adjustable via independent spring suspensions)

 (Serial numbers - DA9412A039 / DA0315A130)


Technics SH-10 EP Control Power Supply Units. 

(Re-capped and fully serviced)

----------------------------------------------------

BBC designed MP1-18 Tone Arms with Headshells.

(Fitted with Ortofon OM Moving Magnet Pro Cartridges & Styli)


 Stereo Panel Amplifiers PA3/5/215.

 Pre-amps with AM 16/11 - RSA EQ circuits.

(Offering variable top and bass cut filters)


Pre-fade listen facilities for headphone monitoring from both decks via PO-316 twin jacks. 

(Each headphone jack output has a variable gain control)



Both Technics turntables operate smoothly and silently offering visual internal strobes and fast start times.

Turntables run at speed options 33/45 & 78 rpm with illuminated motorboard variable pitch controls.

MP1-18 pick-up tone arms with damping controls.

Groove optical indicators are fitted but they require setting up and alignment with the aid of a service manual.

All function indicator lights and LEDs operate well.

Detachable XLR output leads supplied.

---------------------------------

Sorry, but I don't have any service information for this reproducer but Technics info is widely available.



Both turntables, power supplies/controllers and plinths are modular and can be unplugged from the main cabinet.

These are accessed from the front hinged down control panel. 



The white console is in a nice clean condition.

If studied closely there are a few little marks here and there consistent with studio use but nothing major.

Please examine my photos for general cosmetics.



The cabinet dimensions are - W-96cm  D-67cm  H-102cm.

As this unit is heavy (approx 78Kg on castors), I would appreciate personal collection please.

However, should you wish to have this unit shipped inside or outside the UK - please contact me for a quotation.

I would appreciate your shipping inquiry prior to bidding - thank you.


 

Should you have further questions, I will be pleased to answer.

 Thanks for looking and best wishes.
