Classic hi-fi components

The Hydraulic Reference with Fluid arm should be worth a bit I reckon and IIRC, Michel did a platter upgrade which was well worthwhile. Fit an ADC XLM or anything good from this era and you could have magic.... My next cartridge project will be a V15III with Jico SAS stylus, as the VN35HE ou-performed a standard V15IV as I remember...

The thing with all these "iffy" but good decks from this period is not to over-load the arm or record with modern low-compliance cartridges, as the result is disaster usually IMO..

The michell 'Hyd' is totally mint in original box..It has the upgrade if your refering to the small glass platter, i had the extra long spindle/platter retainer made for it.Your looking at a grand ish..'Prisma' still my fav Michell deck.

If that was the top one, it should sound good in the Fluid arm, if a little bit "Audio Technica MC" for some posters...
