Rega R200 tonearm for sale, went to Audio Origami last year for a full rewire ( internal and external ) and to have the bearings checked / reset. It has a working anti-skate.

Many people rate this arm as equivalent to the SME 3009, without the limitations of the knife-edge bearing and with the benefits of a standard Rega mount. It comes with the standard Rega headshell (SME fit) and standard headshell weight. Plus of course one of J7's premium silvered OFC arm leads. It's a real cracker of an arm especially in rewired form.

I bought this arm from 'Early' on the 'Wam about six weeks back for a mono project, now abandoned, for £200 shipped, looking for this back, see original post (http://www.hifiwigwam.com/showthread.php?65569-Rega-R200-Tone-arm-Audio-Origami-rewired&highlight=r200).

Swaps welcome for non-TT related stuff, maybe a DAC or some valve-friendly speakers?

I think you'll find that it will now outperform a 3009 by quite some margin. These are really good arms IMHO. ;)

If no one buys this tonearm, they are fools.

Good Luck.
