BIC model 940 - STEREO TURNTABLE - record player w/Stanton cart

$125.00

For Sale: Tested and working very nice condition classic stereo turntable. Made in the USA probably 1970's.

Just serviced in November 2017- completely disassembled, all metal parts scrubbed down to remove old hardened grease, relubed, machine oil put in appropriate places, and carefully reassembled. Fresh damping fluid has been applied to the tonearm lowering/raising assembly so it lowers slowly and smoothly when cuing lever is switched. All features are currently working great. Includes single play spindle, did not get a multi play spindle with this but you can pick them up online.

Fully automatic! To play an album you set the number of repeat cycles and press the start lever. The tonearm raises, moves over to the first track, lowers, and album plays. At the end of the album the tonearm raises, moves back to holder, and depending on the number of repeats left either replays or lowers, and powers off. Works reliably every time.

Dust cover has good hinges and no chips/cracks. Overall the player is in extra nice clean condition with very little wear. Complete and all original. Correct belt installed. Speed sounds correct on both 33 and 45 RPM. Size selector works correctly and tonearm drops in correct place for both LPs and 45s.

The cartridge is a high end Stanton 681 with an original Stanton stylus/needle with built in dust brush. Am not sure how much wear is on needle but it does work well with good highs and bass, no distortion, skipping, or hum. Generic replacement needles readily available online probably $10-$15 with shipping included, high end Stanton styli still available too.

Took a demo video to show working condition see it here (note damping fluid was applied after video was made and now tonearm drops slower): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dPaybmn6wwoD8Y9mfIXOS56YiNdOvm2Z
