●Head shell/cartridge
SONY VL-15G / ND-15G compatible needle
The tip of the needle is still intact.
●To start playing, press the START button, then align the arm with the outer circumference of the record and gently lower the needle using the lever. It is convenient because the arm automatically returns and stops at the end of the record. If you press the REJECT button during a performance, the arm will automatically return.
SONY's proprietary XTAL-LOCK SYSTEM is equipped with the latest technology at the time, which uses crystal oscillation control to ensure accurate rotation without the need for strobe adjustment.
●We were using an old amplifier LUXMAN L504 and speakers B&W CM1. I've used other cartridges such as the SHURE M44G, but I can enjoy records with good sound quality without muddying the sound. I feel that it is an excellent player that can bring out the potential of each cartridge.
●The cover has some small scratches and scuff marks, but the overall condition is good. This model has advantages in terms of sound quality, such as a high-rigidity arm, a heavy body, and insulator legs.
●Operation has been confirmed by playing a record and producing sound. Arm up and down, 33/45 rotation control, reject, etc. work normally.
Please note that we are not an audio shop or the like, so we do not conduct detailed sound quality measurements using equipment.
Please purchase this item if you have basic knowledge of record operations such as resetting turntables, connecting amplifiers and speakers, and adjusting stylus pressure.
