PLEASE NOTE: Like all sprung chassis turntables, this deck NEEDS a solid floor or preferably a turntable shelf to perform to it's best. Wooden floors and heavy footfall will negatively effect the function of this precision turntable.
The turntable will be properly packed with the platter & weights removed, the chassis secured, Tonearm tied down & the lid protected. As a result some basic setting up will be required - you can contact me for after sale help or advice if needed.
