AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sony PS-LX4 direct-drive / Quartz-lock turntable, semi-automatic (auto-return)
The Sony PS-LX4 is a high-quality, quartz-controlled direct-drive semi-automatic turntable that was originally released by Sony in 1981
Made in Japan
The arm returns automatically to the rest position at the end of the record
Technically in very good condition, cleaned and re-aligned
Around it, only minor signs of use. The dust cover has been refinished and is nicely clear, though some unavoidable scratches are present (see the photos)
Very well-built statically balanced straight tonearm with adjustable tracking force and lateral balance compensation (anti-skating)
Original Sony headshell with XL-200 MM cartridge with a good stylus
Hinges are also still in perfect condition, the lid stays nicely open as it should
Runs smoothly and steadily thanks to the Quartz-lock control, the motor is very quiet
The original Sony 45 RPM adapter is also included
Please view the detailed photos, they are part of the item description
(the pictured LP is not part of the purchase)
The player is packed and shipped with the greatest care and with tracking
That is to say: the platter is packed separately, the arm fixed and the counterweight removed. The whole is wrapped in bubble wrap with soft foam, in a sturdy box
