AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Philips GA 212 Electronic.
An iconic Philips turntable from the 1970s with the particularly beautiful green-lit buttons.
The Philips GA212 turntable features electronic speed control using a tachogenerator, a photoelectric switch, floating suspension of the turntable and tonearm, and electronic touch controls for start, speed selection and stop.
Automatic stop door opto-electronic system. Controls through illuminated touch-sensitive buttons (45 - stop - 33). Arm lift via rocker switch.
The important advantages of electronic speed control are high stability of turntable speed, negligible wow and flutter, and precise speed adjustment.
The slow-running high-torque motor, the high quality of the aluminium platform, and the drive belt contribute to an exceptionally low rumble.
The player has received a full service and all the existing lamps have been replaced with new ones, along with the drive belt.
The original 5-pin DIN connector has been replaced with a new cable featuring RCA plugs.
There is a Philips GP400 cartridge mounted with a new needle. During testing using a test plate, the optimal tracking force was 1.8 grams.
The player is equipped with the original MORF mains plug.
Internally, the flyback/snubber capacitor has been replaced with a new unit.
The voltage is set to 240V/AC.
The turntable has been re-lubricated where needed after cleaning.
The wooden frame has also been cleaned and re-oiled.
After all this work, you’ll have a beautiful turntable at home that will last for years to come.
The turntable is in exceptionally good condition and has light signs of wear.
There are a few light scratches on the dust cap.
to be supplied
An online copy of the manual.
An electronic scale for adjusting the needle pressure.
A new 45 RPM record puck.
A screwdriver to remove the transport screws.
The minimum price is set at €150.
