    Default Reed 3p 12" tonearm for sale.

    I am reductantly moving away from vinyl. So I have some top notch goodies coming up for sale.

    First off is my pristine Reed 3P 12" arm. It's in absolutely mint condition.

    12"*Cocobolo*Arm*Wand
    125cm*Cryo*Treated*Cabling*with*KLEi*Plugs.

    It comes with its presentation box and all accessories.

    It would be shipped with UPS priority insured shipping so isn't cheap to post - this can be confirmed once I know where it's going but it will be at least €100 euros.

    I'm asking €2,900 for this stunning bit of engineering (on the fly VTA, azimuth adjustment etc).

    Payment by transfer.

    PM if interested.

    If the Technics is going to be up for sale I would be curious to know for how much, as I have an itch regarding an SP10 that I might like to scratch.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    All my vinyl front end will be for sale - reluctantly. The Vida is listed separately. The Sp10 and Allearts will be the last to go.

    I cannot say how good the Reed is - it was my dream arm. But I'm opening a second school here in Spain and need cash.

    I cant quite believe im doing it. Gulp.

    Just a word about it..

    Use - an absolute dream. It is amazing how that pivot point works - zero friction but rigid like a normal pivot so it handles like a dream.

    Functionality - again amazing. Every parameter can be adjusted during play without worry, the engineering is superb. As is the arms geometry.

    Sound - having owned conventional armwands I've also tried a number of wooden, some warm, but the Reed no.
    It has an open, spacious quality with beautiful extension at the top. Lower down it goes deep and remains utterly in control.
    Vocals are sublime, raspy brass is brassy, deep reggae is deep reggae etc. It is consistent across all genres.

    Looks - stunning, from any angle.

    If my system were my kids the Reed would be the pretty one.

    Price drop to €2750 - for the last tonearm you will buy. 10/10 in every way, not even dusty lol
