Sony PS-77 Automatic Record Changer Turntable Needs Needle Nice Condition Tested

Description

Actual Photos Shown:
This is a rare style of turntable that is no longer made anymore by anyone. I’m talking of course about the record changer, with this machine you can put a stack of records and it will play each one of them and start the next one when it’s finished. The record changer feature has been tested and does work perfectly as well as the automatic start for 7 inch and 12 inch records as well as the speed of 33 1/3 and 45 RPM. The existing needle sounds like crap, it’s junk and ready for the trash it needs either a new needle or you need to replace the entire cartridge if a vintage replacement needle cannot be found. I also noticed the platter, with the metal rings on it, one of the metal rings is starting to push up it looks like the old adhesive is breaking down causing the ring to lift up. These are the rings that sit directly underneath the record and look like they are stainless steel. When testing, I played it with some junk records, to check the speed to see if it sounds like it’s playing right and it does. This was just a quick test by ear, but with this test the 33 and 45 speed sound about right. As far as the sound quality as I said before it sounds like crap, not like it’s the wrong speed just like the needle is ready for replacement it’s very scratchy. Still the same though, a record changer is a rare to be working. It’s also not often, to find a vintage record player with a plastic dust cover that has no cracks, and this one has no cracks! Also in terms of scratches, it’s by no means perfect but it is in very good condition Shown and a Photos. Though it is working at the time of posting, I have no idea when the last time service was done on this machine or when it will need it next. It puts out a phono level signal, you will need a phono stage to make this turntable work, and as mentioned before a new needle or cartridge. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions.
