Well, after buying a VPI, I need to sell one of my three Denon turntables, and so this rare beauty is for sale:
The TT itself is in terrific condition - works absolutely perfectly, and sounds fantastic - this deck is one of the best Denon ever made, and still highly sought after to this day.
I've mounted and balanced a DL-110 high-output Moving Coil cartridge on it, which has less than 50 hours use (probably less than 20), so is essentially brand new (I bought it new). So this baby will be shipped to you ready to enjoy. Speaking of which, while shipping will be a little expensive since this is a HEAVY 'table, but I have shipped over a dozen turntables over the last 10 years, and I know how to do it right so that it will arrive in the same great condition it is now.
Two things to note:
1. The dust cover is intact, but ugly - discolored and scratched. It will serve its function, but it detracts from the beauty of the TT. If you fall in love with the deck, you can have a beautiful new custom dust cover made for $300 by Gingko Audio, or probably less elsewhere.
2. This TT is 220V. I am including in the sale a step-up transformer so it can be used in North America - and of course this is the only way I have ever used the TT myself. While this may tempt some people in Europe to want to buy it, I want to warn you - I shipped a TT like this to Europe once, and it cost well over $150. I'll do it, but you will pay.
I'm looking for $450 shipped in the USA, which is a HUGE bargain for this deck + Cartridge, and will blow the doors off any other turntable/cartridge combo you could get for that price. These decks often sell for over $500 without cartridge.
Thanks for looking.
