Dad probably bought this turntable about 1967 if the number stamped underneath is a date code. It contains 67 which sounds about right. It was in our living rooms until 1986 or so. The motor still works and the belts are intact! Guess it was designed to survive anything. Remarkably, the foam in the shock mounts still appears to be good also. The oiled walnut chassis has a few minor dents but is free of scrapes or gouges. I did not test the audio: the wires from the cartridge to the terminal block underneath are enameled magnet wire (unshielded) which cant be original. They were run randomly which is exactly how Dad would have repaired it. Shouldnt there be shielded twisted pairs, at least, through the tone arm? I cut them for shipping so youll need to rewire the tone arm for sure now. I believe the Pickering cartridge to be original and I cannot believe the stylus is still good after all our (ab)use. Youll note that someone rebalanced the tone arm by gluing a penny in the cartridge holder sometime in or after 1973. ???? You can spin the platter backwards with the power off, and then turn it on to run it backwards. (Thats how I listened to the backwards message in ELOs Fire on High). I always wanted to work out the physics of why that worked: if its not spinning quite fast enough when you throw the switch it reverses to the correct clockwise direction. This turntable runs at both 33 & 45 RPM: you move the belt on the pulley underneath the platter to select speeds. The tone arm holder also remarkably survived although as you can see in the photos it has been repaired.NO plastic cover is included: it broke in the 70s as I recall.Theres also a pretty good layer of dust caked on this turntable now; there was an AR logo on the front which also fell off at some point.The bottom cover is intact but missing three its screws.Im including a foam record mat which is also NOT original. Please understand that I am not offering returns on this item. Thanks.

No grills and the AR logo missing also two corners and one side of the cabinets were repaired. - see pictures-The speaker surrounds are made of high-quality rubber, pliable and durable. The mid-range, high range and the bass are wonderful, bass is deep, tight and controlled, although very powerful. One of the best little speaker ever. Over 300 pairs of Acoustic Research Speakers restored and sold. The feedback received for these speakers will best describe them.Exactly as described, great neutral sound and excellent value for money. Probably need to spend well over a grand to get a modern equivalent. Just need to get a decent DAC now.Very nice speakers expertly packed by the seller.Excellent speakers. Incredible for age. Restored & packed well. Interestingly the AR18 was considered a great alternative to the Yamaha NS10s for nearfield monitoring duties in 1980s pro studios. It is thought the NS10 won out in the popularity stakes because of their highly identifiable white cone woofers. The Acoustic Research AR18S evolved from the AR/6/7/18 series with an upgraded ferro-fluid cooled tweeter and what AR eventually described as their Universal woofer coupled with a New Look. AR had realized that the previous series were at best utilitarian in look, concentrating on the sound believing that the average buyer was more concerned with How It Sounded over what it looked like...but it dawned on them eventually that the female in the house wanted a speaker to be a piece of furniture as much as a purveyor of sound. They put their heads together and came up with the S series designed to look and sound nice. They succeeded. The 18S has been described as a Nearfield Monitor. And so, over the last twenty to thirty years the 18S has achieved cult status as the must have of bookshelf sized. Mr. Edgar Villchur, the founder of the original Acoustic Research Company invented the acoustic suspension (infinite baffle) principle in 1953, just as they invented the dome speaker. What AR had always been famous for was the neutrality of sound. A good speaker was good with everything and anything, either you play rock or classical music they deliver amazing sound.
