Description from the seller
The TEAC P-9 is a vintage turntable introduced in 1981, known for being a flagship component of TEAC's “9” series. Also offered in another auction is the set consisting of amplifier A9, tuner T9 and deck V9.
It is a device that combines the precision of Direct Drive technology with the convenience of a fully automatic system, making it a highly sought-after piece by collectors for its reliability and ease of use.
The design of the TEAC P-9 reflects the hi-fi aesthetics of the early 1980s, with a solid build and a gray/metallized finish typical of the period. Its main feature is the quartz-controlled direct drive system (Quartz Lock), which guarantees exceptional rotational speed stability, nearly eliminating wow and flutter.
Being a Full-Automatic model, it allows you to start playback and return the arm to rest with the simple press of a button, protecting your records from accidental maneuvers.
It is equipped with a strobe light.
The turntable shows some signs of wear as highlighted in the photos, which are an integral part of the description.
The plinth shows some superficial scratches but is intact as are the hinges.
From a functional standpoint the turntable is in excellent condition.
It is fitted with a high-quality Stenton L725E cartridge with D70E stylus.
