I have for sale a JVC TT-71 in good condition. This was only bought a few weeks back but I have upgraded again so it is surplus to requirement The previous owner (Ian of the Lenco Heaven forum fame) made the plinth using Delignit MU25 a beech ply similar to Panzerholz in construction but compressed by 20% instead of Panzerholz's 50%. This was 3 sheets while 2 sheets of birch ply which has the chrome pieces added (the pictures do flatter it but I think - and everyone who has seen it in the flesh - does look very smart and suits the motor unit. Some pictures of the as TT as bought it a few weeks back, I mounted my wooden 12 inch arm and it worked pretty well but the pivot to spindle distance was not correct ] I then routed out 20 mm from the top piece and made a tonearm armboard so I could get the correct pivot to spindle distance now and the turntable SQ was brilliant Pictures as it is now - armboard created for an RB300 - again, the SQ is very good even with this arm I will sell the whole TT (minus cartridge) as is (JVC TT-71, plinth and the Rega RB300) for £460 or minus the Rega for £370 (this is how much the TT owes me). The RB300, I have owned for the last 27 years and was used on a Gyrodek I bought new but has not been in use for the last 15 years, but seems to work fairly well. I would not like to post this due to the weight etc so prefer it to be picked up from where I live (near Leeds) - this way I can demo it and show it fully working Cheers

Hi gninnam
as I also replied on the other thread I'll do here also,
I am genuinely interested in the TT including the Rega arm. Trouble is I'm in Woking (GU22) with little to no chance of getting to Leeds anytime soon.
Any suggestions I'd love to hear.
Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris - someone is showing interest in the JVC on another forum. Can you let me know your intent please?

Hi Chris - someone is showing interest in the JVC on another forum. Can you let me know your intent please? Hi Andy, my apologies for not getting back to you sooner, it was my best friends wedding this weekend, middle of nowhere job. Sounds like it's one that got away for me anyway. Whether it's now someone else's or you are indeed keeping it, sometimes the circumstance/location just doesn't allow for a deal to be done quickly but I appreciate your offer to meet half way etc. No doubting it's a beautiful TT and I'm sure it sounds superb too. Thanks anyway and all the best.
