evil c Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Item: YAMAHA YPD-71 TURNTABLE Location: Melbourne Price: $270 Item Condition: 8.5/10 Reason for selling: Need the space Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal Extra Info: This is an excellent example of a quality unit from the late 70's/ early 80's & are rarely seen on the market in such pristine conditionI. This model is quartz locked direct drive & semi automatic. (Arm lifts up at the end of a record - great feature for peace of mind!) Used to run this with a Dynavector Ruby Karat moving coil cartridge & it was capable of providing faithful reproduction of the uncompressed canons on the Telarc 1812 Overture which was regarded as "audio's toughest challenge" for a tonearm/ cartridge combo.The tonearm is virtually the same as that fitted to the highly revered GT2000 which are highly sought after!. The perspex cover has a few scratches & one deeper scratch near the back right side but no cracks visible & lid lifts off if required. Due to the heavy weight & delicate nature you will need to pick up this unit at Glen Waverley I will provide with an Ortofon cartridge Pictures:
