    Description

    For sale is a very rare Micro Seiki RW-1500 dead weight unit use to mount underneath the RX-1500 unit when you want to separate the motor unit. This unit is rarely seen, especially in NOS/NIB condition as this. I believe this is factory sealed as the tape has not been open. I weight it and it's 18 lbs, which put the weight at 8 kg + the weight of the packaging. Please see the pictures and judge the condition for yourself, I have take several close up picture of the tape to show its condition. The box itself has some wear, tear, and dirt associate with storage and age. Some corners has more wear than other. It will be pack extremely well. As for price comparison, a reproduction unit is selling well into hundreds of USD. So this is probably your only chance to own one of the genuine Micro Seiki unit that's NIB/NOS.
    This unit come out of a local collector who had an amazing collection of audiophile equipment, most of them Japan made. I will list other Micro Seiki including a rare RX-1500, and other tonearm, parts, etc .... in other listings soon.
    Please note that I am listing these for my friend, who is not an expert so testing is very limited (usually to see if the unit powers on or not). I will describe the unit to the best of my knowledge. If you have any concern please reach out to me for additional information or pictures as needed.
    Condition:
    This is a used Micro Seiki RW-1500 dead weight in as described condition.
    I am offering this
    as-is,
    with no guarantee of its full function when it arrives to you
    . Vintage electronics contain 20-50 years old parts (belts, rubber parts, caps, etc) that while may work at the time I tested the unit, can fail at any given time. It can be a few weeks, months, or years before it fails. Service is recommend since the unit is not fully tested, and their working condition is unknown.
    Please check my 100% feed back, and take this into consideration before you buy. I am an honest seller, but I have to protect myself against the few fraudulent buyers out there that like to swap parts.

    there is no return/refund accept for this item
    . Please keep this in mind before you make the purchase.
    Please note that I leave a tampering proof on these unit, that will not effect its function, but will tell me if the unit has been open in anyway. I am doing this to deter parts swapper, etc...
