I'm original owner of this great little 'table. I've heard more detail, deeper bass, bigger soundstage from (much) more expensive 'tables, but the reason I've hung on to this is . . . music. It plays music, draws you in.
It's in great shape, even the dust cover is super clean. Only thing you notice cosmetically is a slight separation at the corners of the wood-grain vinyl plinth covering. Plinth itself is solid. Has the Akito I arm, far better than the earlier Basik arm. One of the hinges busted a while back, and I bought a replacement pair, so you have a spare in case the other one goes. It also comes with the None-felt mat, with Skin (to protect record from the mat itself), as well as the original Linn felt mat, which has gone slightly ovoid over the years.
The Benz MC20E2-H high-output cart you see has low hours, probably less than 200, and is a great match. That's available for an extra $100. If you need a phono preamp, too, I have a nice Parasound PPH-100 that I'll make a good package deal with.
Have box, packing, and manual. Prefer local pick-up from 23185 but can ship if needed.
