Those have a rather B&O or Tandberg look to them. Got to be worth the £50!Quote:

Great thing, and very sensibly priced. Not sure how easy it'd be to fix though, if something crucial to the functioning of the control circuitry went pop....

I believe it uses the pre quartz Matsushita (Technics) motor and circuitry Marco. So maybe not too hard to sort.Quote:

Marco, don't be scared -as Geoff says the motor was used in many different models and it would be easy to find a replacement should it go bang. However I have to say I've never known one to fail and I've owned many!
On the other hand, it's not all that great a motor, although the deck looks fab. I wouldn't pay £550 for it, personally.
But it does come with an SME 3009 arm, worth about £200. So that makes ~£350 for the deck alone.
