wii.
If you ever do sell that, Andy, give me first dibs! Can we see your Shure SC35C? :)
Marco.
Why the fugg did Technics discontinue this? I know, vinyl was supposed to be dying back in the late 80's and nearly did. They could have hopefully kept the tooling and used the basic generator as a base for some new models of differing tip and tracking needs - DJ on the one hand and audiophile on the other. The suspensions if the mk3 onwards are supposed to be temperature tolerant and as long as it's survived the twenty years or so since I suspect it was made, it can easily be re-tipped later on :)
That cart is one sexy looking beast.
I don't see me selling and believe or not, there was a PM within minutes of the 1st picture posted, not got the SC35C yet, sent a cheque so waiting for it to clear before i get it, will post a pic for your to verify once i get my mitts on it.:scratch:
Seemingly A.J Van Den Hul said this is the only MM cart worth his effort re-tipping, that Chemical Vapour Deposition shank was state of the art at the time,pretty toxic process, the profile of that polished diamond is amazing under a high power scope, when i got it my reaction was ''where's the tip?'' until i caught the glint.
Hooray...got my SC35c today.
