Depends on you, I've repaired many a turntable. If you get the arm, I find it a no brainer, I'd grab it. If it is the table only, I probably would not.
About to Buy a Technics SP-10!? Am I making a mistake?
I'm about to buy an old technics sp10 mk2. I can't test it. Have no idea if it all works. It'll be about $600. Am I making a huge mistake?

Have no idea if it all works. It’ll be about $600. Am I making a huge mistake? @spammer you got an incredible deal on everything, you paid very low price, let me tell you the real prices: 1) A good working, used SP-10MKII with power supply cost $1200 minimum. As i can see your drive looks nice, your power supply has some scratches, but still ok, so the price is great! 2) The EPA-100 tonearm cost $1200-1500 minimum and this is incredible tonearm for MM cartridges (or for Mid/High compliance MC). So only turntable and tonearm cost minimum $2400-2700 and you paid only $600, imagine !? Then you have for free: 3) Denon DL-301 wich you can use on this arm or to sell and upgrade for a better MM cartridge instead. Ask if you need advice. 4) SH-10B4 you can upgrade for something better like SH-10B3 Obsidian (here is mine) or custom plinth (here is mine made of teak wood). Congrats on everything! |
