Eric,
posted in your thread on the JVC.
This is a fine table.
Careful of the arm wand- it's carbon fibre.
Also, careful of the platter- it features a magnetic strip on it that if chipped, damaged, washed, scratched heavily or put near magnets, screws up the X-Tal lock reading and significantly drops the value of the table.
The strip is brown in color, like a cassette tape.
The table is an excellent table and if working 100% and in perfect shape, typically sells for $350 to $400.
If the X-Tal is not working, or if the magnetic strip is borked, not so much.
I own four JVCs and eight Sonys- they are very good tables.
Where are you located? I may be able to help you with the intermittant issue. It's most likely an easy fix, and my thoughts are on replacing the RCA cables.
