Description: For sale a rare to find high quality TEAC Magnefloat model TS-85 turntable (circa 1968) with Fidelity Research FR-24 tonearm. Turntable also has a built in MC transformer. Description (from website): A record player using a turntable equipped with a magne-float mechanism. The turntable uses a belt drive turntable based on TN-202. Durability is improved by a magnesium float mechanism that floats a heavy turntable with a large flywheel effect by a ring magnet. In addition, it uses a hysteresis synchronous type motor. Equipped with a protection mechanism that prevents the speed switching mechanism from operating when the power switch is off, preventing deformation of the belt. The Tone Arm is equipped with a gyrostat mechanism using four ultra-precision miniature bearings, and is also equipped with a needle pressure direct reading scale, lateral balancer, and arm elevation mechanism. The head shell is made of pressed aluminum alloy, and European standard is adopted for the connector. Equipped with a booster transformer, the output of the MC cartridge is boosted to 4 mv. In the case of MM type cartridge, by setting the switch to out, it is connected as it is without going through transformer. SPECIFICATIONS: Model number - TS-85 Drive system - 2-speed belt drive Turntable - 30 cm aluminum die-cast, 2.4 kg Motor - 4-pole hysteresis synchronous motor Number of revolutions - 33 1/3, 45 rpm Special mechanism - Magne-float mechanism (The weight of the turntable is reduced to 1/2 by the repulsive force of the magnet.) Transmission - Push-button transmission Signal-to-noise ratio - 46 dB or more Wow and flutter - 0.06% Equipped with arm lifter and lateral balancer Booster transformer - With Selector Switch Frequency characteristic - 10 Hz to 20 kHz Output voltage - 4mV Load resistance - 50k Ω Weight - 14kg Check my other ads for more high quality vintage electronics.
