Mint Sony direct drive PS-X70 with Yamaha MC-1 moving coil cartridge. I bought this from original owner about 2 years ago. He shipped it in original box, when I opened it still smelled new after all these years. I wouldnt be surprised if it had less than a 100 hrs use when I got it. Ive probably put only 100 hrs on it myself. It sounds fantastic but really needs a SUT or high gain preamp to sound its best since Yamaha is a LOMC. Im just not willing to invest anymore time and money to optimize. Everything works as new and includes all the extra original pieces. Also included is a silicone TT mat and carbon brush that improves sound. Ive been told the Yamaha MC1 cart has no equal and would be very expensive to replace. I know it would cost $2500+ to replace this table but ive decided to sell my analog setup for now. Includes original manual and box. (TT weight not included) Shipping $45 Paypal please add $3% or friends and family. The Yamaha cartridge was highly prized in its day and in perfect condition.
