he works on them, so, how much does he want to fix the Sansui?
Any experience with these turntables?
Thinking about getting my feet wet again with turntables and analog audio. A new friend of mine in audio, who works on these audio kits has a variety of TT he wants to get rid of. Has anyone had any of these? Which vintage model might yield the best fidelity?
AR XB (needs mat and cartridge), Sansui SR-4050C (mint condition, but needs auto off switch fixed) Marantz 6100 (pretty clean) and lastly Garrard Zero (fair condition). All tables would need a new cartridge I would assume.

Technology of Garrard Zero is intriguing, what kind of money you talking? https://www.vinylengine.com/library/garrard/zero-100.shtml review: file:///C:/Users/ellio/Downloads/ve_garrard_zero_100_reviews.pdf Note 15 degree VTA feature, thus a used Shure V15 body, with new Stylus from Jico would seem a good choice from Vinyl Engine: "The Garrard Zero 100 is a superb two-speed transcription turntable with such special features as: An ingenious tonearm virtually without tracking error (patent applied for) with damped cueing action. A magnetic tonearm anti-skating system (patent applied for). A motor with the advantages of both induction and synchronous motors (patent applied for). A record speed and pitch control system with built in stroboscopic checking. A tilting device to set the cartridge at a 15 degree tracking angle. In addition to manual operation the Zero 100 will automatically play single 7", 10" and 12" records, or a stack of up to seven 12" records - adaptors are available to play records with large centre holes and to play a stack of 7" records." |
