German-Made Dual Semi-Automatic Belt-Drive Turntable CS 514

Technics SL-220 Turntable – Made in Japan, Serviced, Open Deck
This deck has had over $120 in service and parts. The tonearm has been professionally repaired and reconnected, resolving tracking issues, and a replacement headshell has been fitted at no extra charge. The pitch control potentiometers (speed pots) have been deep-cleaned and deoxidized, curing the speed drift these models are known for, so the speed is now rock-steady. A fresh, correct-tension belt ensures accurate rotation and quick start-up, and a brand-new Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge and stylus offer punchy, reliable sound right out of the gate. The platter rim has been sanded and polished to a mirror shine, removing years of oxidation. This is the open-deck version, an ideal candidate for a cabinet, a shelf system, or DJ-style open-air use; just add your own dust cover if desired, or enjoy the sleek, open-deck look. Condition: Good. The grey plinth is clean, and the freshly polished platter rim looks fantastic. Functionally it is perfect: speed is stable, tracking is excellent, and the auto-return works smoothly.
