for sale as it is hardly used now. This is now on my second turntable (Systemdek) which probably isn't fully exploiting the potential of the arm. It's boxed and in very good condition (the latest model which now retails for £1344). I'm looking for £825 but am open to near offers - a p/ex for a cheaper arm I can put on the Systemdek is also a possibility. More info and pics on request. Not desperate to sell but maybe someone will get more use out of it than I do.

Hello,

Any idea how old this arm is ? are you the only owner from new or did you obtain this used ?

I assume no cart fitted ?

Do you know if it can be made to fit a Tecknics 1200SL MK11

Photos would be good :)

It's around 2 years old - I bought it from someone who had only had it for a couple of months and then decided to upgrade. I had it on a modded Technics 1210 so it will definitely fit (but you will need an armboard). Re: pics I suggest you give me your email address and then I can send you some. (tomorrow). I've tried Photobucket etc. but it hasn't worked for me!

many thanks for posting the pics - I hadn't realised how much the flash highlights the dust! If the turntable didn't have a lid I think I'd have to dust the arm every few days or so.

I have an Origin Live Silver Mk III (Thats MkII, but origin Live themselves refer to the mod made as Mk III?) that iv'e been considering p/x'ing for an Encounter or similar. Would that be of any interest?

Regards

Always best to photograph in natural light Alan, if your camera is up to the job!

Many thanks Jules - it was just laziness on my part. My camera should be up to it.
