Looks like NIB AR XB with shure M91ED

[vaathi]

Got NIB AR XB with shure M91ED with cracked cover recently for large bill and the guy wanted to throw in Elac 10H for 40 more.. Elac had shure m3d i guess... I had to pass since I already have way too many turntables. Anyway I the plate has rotted foam on it.. Also the it has oil and stuff.. I did not spin it yet. Before I do anything, I am gonna clean it ( thanks to david@vinyl Nirvana videos). Question is what should I do before I spin it. Couple of pics..

Last pic is the shure m3d i saw in Elac 10H..

Lube platter & tonearm wells, lube tonearm pivot, check cart alignment, talc on belt if it is still viable, try it!

You probably could have tripled your money on the 10H just from the M3D. And doubled or tripled your money on the 10H itself.

I still have a shot at that.. I have bought couple of stuff from that guy... He also was trying to sell HK 330c for 2 small bills too... I think I might get that too..

I was going to ask you what is large bill and now what is small bill?

 

[vaathi]

Benjamin is large and Jackson is small

Get the M3D. I've run one on an AR-XA and it sound very good.
