Philips 22GA-222 Electronic - DC Servo Fully Automatic turntable, manufactured in 1976, in very good physical condition and tested and working.
Description from the seller
Philips 22GA 222 electronic DC servo belt-drive turntable
Very nice and good fully automatic Philips turntable, in very good condition
Nice appearance with an aluminium baseboard, a former top model from the series.
Thoroughly tested, all automatic functions work perfectly.
The plate is started with a gentle touch of the tip key.
Through a contact in the turntable, the player can determine whether an LP (12") or a single (7") is played.
Nice, clear dust cover with no damage, only a few typical scratches. The hinges are also still in good condition, and the dust cover stays nicely open as it should.
Tachogenerator motor with belt drive, the condition of the belt is very good.
Push-button control for start, stop, and speed selection, with LEDs. Photoelectric edge with auto-return.
Direct needle crash reading when the arm is in the rest position.
Hydraulic damped arm lift
Exact adjustable lateral force compensation using a ring, calibrated for round, elliptical, and CD4 (quadro) diamond needles.
Damped suspended subchassis as a support for the tonearm and turntable.
Universal balanced aluminium tonearm with damped hanging counterweight, horizontally and vertically bearing.
It plays nicely, consistently and stably, and sounds very good.
The touch buttons for start/stop and for speed selection respond well when touched by a finger.
Straight aluminum tonearm with adjustable tracking force. Equipped with a Philips GP401 II cartridge with a very good elliptical stylus.
The player is delivered including the original Philips 45 RPM adapter for singles.
Note: these older Philips players are equipped with a DIN connector. For connection to most amplifiers, a DIN-to-RCA adapter cable is required. If desired, it can be supplied.
