how good is an akai ap006 turntable?


Taking out the trash one day I noticed the top to a turntable in the recycle bin. Right away I peeked into the trash dumpster and low and behold there lay an akai ap006 turntable. It is a fairly heavy sucker about 20 to 25 pounds. I plugged it in and it gets up to speed very well. The speed ajust and strobe work. I need to fix the rca input cables which I will switch out for digital audio cable anyway. What I am wondering is does anyone know about these turntables and their quality or lack thereof. I would appreciate any info and thank you in advance

It would be interesting to learn how you discovered the Audiogon.com website. How does one go from dumpster-diving to the audio forum on Audiogon.com in one step?? Entering Akai record player, or Akai turntable, in a Google search does not lead to this site so there must be some intervening events that brought you here. Please tell us how you found us. Thanks
