Was this Technics set up for Radio or Nightclub?

I can’t believe someone near enough didn’t drive over there and get those two SP25’s.

from the Hoffman link above:

"It's Micro-Trak tonearms, Micro-trak 6509 mixer (new 1981), in a Micro-Trak "Ditty Desk".

Those are Technics SP-25’s, which are excellent decks. Put them in plinths and add tonearms, and you’ve got a top notch analog set up. The price is certainly right, even if you keep one and sell the other. I’d definitely go for it. Hell, you could even sell each turntable separately, hopefully get more than you payed, and buy the turntable you really want. Hey, how about trying out and SP-25? lol 

Spent a lot of time with these at KTUH.  Can't remember if it was SP15 or SP25's.  They started and stopped on a dime; amazing torque.  Bulletproof.  Student DJ proof?

Last time I played Vintage Soul 45s in Tel Aviv on this sound system in 2019 at the place called Romano. Very impressive, especially those huge Fisher speakers. Great venue! Personally I don’t like rotary mixers, especially those huge old like Bozak, this is the actual set up.

If I had $3,500 - I'd buy two of them!

@lewm , Yes, it switches back and forth between the turntables and controls volume. It is a cheap miniature of what is used in radio stations.
The U of Vermont had a radio station run mostly by the students. I served as a DJ for 2 years. Lots of fun. The highlight of my career was getting to interview Return To Forever. Corea was heavily into Scientology at the time and made no sense as far as I could tell. Al Di Meola did not say a word other than hello, Lenny white was the most grounded of the lot and Stanly Clark was painfully dumb but cheerful and friendly. He was also one of the most talented bass players of the day. Still is. I think he was the first to do that thumb thing where they wack the string making a staccato note. It became the "thing" several years later.

I can tell you through experience ,the Technics I believe 3000 from memory,direct drive turntable was used in Many professional radio and recording studios back in the70s-80s. You did not mention which model turn tables these are , or cartridges , 
I used to own  the  classic technic direct drive  turntables with top audio technicacartridge back in the early 80s. It brings back fond memories of  being an Audiophile in its purist form with my Nakamichi Dragon 3 head cassette deck, state of the art in its day.

Folding table legs means it's portable.  Probably a DJ setup.

...but the ’market’ wants Lots for the 25’s....

Go Forth, roll the dice.

(...pick an LP you Hate to test...but you know that, Right?)

1750 (+tax) seems a bit 'dear'....

Sounds like "Let's haggle 'bout dis...." to me....;)

Are the tt's worth it to you?  The mixer is a nice antique, eBay it and give it away if it bugs you.

Don't burn the table with all that laminate.....*ick*

HO.....

The set is at Used Kids 

here, I said it that it was a console for boys.  LoL

Sp25’s if I remember

To those who seem to know, what is that thing in the middle, a mixing console, a tone control, or what?  Two SP15s?

Nothing like local marketing 

Ad says that its a sweet ass rig - how can anyone argue with that?

The set is at Used Kids Records in Columbus ohio. Here’s a link to the Hoffman thread

It looks similar to the Jr College Radio Station set up I saw years ago.

I suspect it is a console for amateur use exploited in some room for boy or in some house with a rumpus room for small parties.

If it was a DJ setup then it was 40 years ago, new dj setups look totally different:) 

It is for a night club and was probably a semi permanent installation. The portable DJ set ups come in cases. 
The arms and the cabinet are awful but you could mount the drives on new plinths mount new arms and sell the second unit to pay for the whole show. Would be fun!

How about a link to your post on the Hoffman forum.
I can't imagine that being used in a radio station with those flimsy looking legs but it doesn't make for a very portable DJ setup either.

$1,750 is dirt cheap for that even if you just keep the 2 TT's.

Where is it?

That's definitely not from a radio station.
