Purchased 3 weeks ago for use as a second system which is now not gonna happen...hence sale of the Soundsmith Otello cartridge as well. 'Table is absolutely indistinguishable from new. 100% perfect operationally and cosmetically. Betters the performance of the legendary Technics 1200 series (much higher torque, heavier platter with improved isolation, superior speed stability, etc) for about 1/2 the price of what used 1200's are now going for. Switchable 'line / phono' output levels allow for use without a phono preamp. USB output for convenient archiving. Google for uniformly excellent reviews. I will include a Shure M97xE MM cartridge (retail $165), if desired. Asking price includes insured ground shipping to any US street address. Local pickup in LA is welcome and encouraged. Happy to answer any questions to the best of my abilities, thanks for looking.Audio Technica AT-LP1240-USB Direct Drive DJ Turntable This superbly made, professional quality DJ turntable is designed primarily for DJ use in nightclubs, touring and mobile applications.
