New hard-wired phono output cables installed (at a cost of $125). Opportunity to pick up a cool audiophile platter-spinnner with world class arm for well under a grand.The MA-707 is a high-end tonearm (with headshell). The arm allows you to match the cartridge mass by moving the slider to set-points indicated along the arm. The counterweight is larger than typical, and is damped. The MA-707 alone is worth most of the asking price. Comes with original manual. No cartridge included (the AT in the photos is my baby). Dustcover, intact with minor blemishes (see photos). Well fitting box and custom cut packing materials.
