I look frequently, just for fun, this is the 1st time one of these has shown up
Harman Kardon Rabco ST‑7 Linear Tracking Turntable – Near Mint, Fully Functional
Hey….only “rare” in the sense that it’s one of a kind as configured. 1 of my 2 tables is a VPI HR-X with a bunch of mods/upgrades. Table is massive and HEAVY. — leaky pneumatic feet replaced with VPI Avenger Reference feet (~$2500/set retail), same feet as on the $26K table — tonearm upgraded to top-of-the-line 12” Fatboy Gimbal ($4500 retail) Still have the super-desirable 12” WMI Unipivot — Rim-drive replaced with flywheel (lower noise). Still have the rim drive pulley also (hard to find) — VTA upgraded to huge HW-40 VTA (amazing). Still have original silver VTA. — custom acrylic tabletop cover with etched VPI logo — Dual motor unit has 2 brand new Hurst motors in it — Has ultra-rare VPI SUPERPLATTER (included) — Rare VPI welded steel HR-X floor stand — Altogether, in addition to table as described above:
EDIT: sorry for listing a few things twice.
Considering selling it but can’t make up my mind lol. jim |
