TECHNICS SL-1200MK5 - NOS/NEW w/Box (from Japan) - RARE

Legendary flagship Direct-Drive Turntable. For those who only associate the MK5 with DJ equipment, it is actually audiophile and better sounding than many audiophile units: Facts: https://offerup.co/faYXKzQFnY?$deeplink_path=/redirect/ First owner. Brand new in the box. Only removed once with gloves to inspect and briefly test. Works flawlessly! Never touched skin. 100% Virgin. Factory wrapped. Not a scratch or defect anywhere. This is an extremely rare opportunity to have the legend, from the time when Technics cared and built a quality product in Japan. This is not cheap, flimsy, light weight, or poorly QC’ed like the new stuff coming out of Malaysia. The current production MK7 is a confirmed downgrade. The only current unit that might compare is the 1200G. The 1210 M5G is considered the true Grandmaster based almost entirely on the MK5, sans analog pitch, which makes this the GOAT with the classic silver 1200 finish. (Someone else has new in the box 1210 M5Gs up for $3500+ right now.) *Comes with 100V power converter. Stock audio cables are gold plated - higher end than U.S versions for better sound. Own a clean piece of history. PRICE IS FIRM. SALE IS FINAL WITH NO RETURNS. CAN DEMO ON REQUEST AFTER PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. CASH PREFERRED. PAYPAL OR VENMO ACCEPTED. NOTHING ELSE ACCEPTED. IN PERSON AND PICK UP ONLY. ADD SALES TAX. WILL NOT SHIP. ABSOLUTELY NO TRADES. *Photos are of actual item. Video link is not actual item, but identical model in action for reference.*
