Up for your consideration is this turntable.this unit is not perfect. The wood has some damage, as shown. The unit powers on and motor spins, but the band falls off sometimes, so it probably needs a new band. I WAS NOT ABLE TO FULLY TEST THIS because its missing one of the rca cables to connect it. Im not sure if the needle is complete. Another thing I noticed is that the platter/tone arm moves a lot. Im not sure if thats normal since I know some turntable drive/motor are almost floating in place. I did see it had a hole for transporting it, I will be putting a bolt there for shipping. PLEASE REMOVE IT BEFORE POWERING IT ON. Its missing 1 foot. Im selling this as is for parts or repair. See the pictures for the exact. FREE LOCAL PICK UP IN BLOOMINGTON CALIFORNIA IS WELCOME. THANKS FOR LOOKING.

Acoustic Research AR turntable. The Legend.. Ive owned since new, and has had very little use. Really good condition. Brand new drivebelt, and in excellent working condition.Collection only from Watford or Sunderland by arrangement.

Acoustic Research Ar Turntable. This is turning and putting out sound, however needs a service. / think it needs new springs as the platter rubs on the deck, No Tonearm Included

Teledyne Acoustic Research ‘The AR Turntable’, sometimes known as the Legend. This is a 1984 turntable that I’ve owned from new, it’s in excellent, near pristine condition; there can’t be many 40-year old Legend turntables around in this condition. I still have the original Installation Manual and an AR Review from the time, which of course come with it; unfortunately the original box and packing are long gone. It’s just been cleaned, serviced, re-oiled bearing, new drive belt and new Rega Carbon cartridge to demonstrate that everything is working as it should be. These turntables still look and sound excellent today and can trace their roots back to the early 1960s. Almost as importantly, it has an elegant and timeless appearance fitting in well with traditional or contemporary decor. Can be viewed and listened to prior to sale at my home in Worsley (Greater Manchester, UK). I will hook it up to the matching AR amplifier and KEF 101 speakers from the same era, which was my setup from the 1980s. I may list these separately. Turntable has not been used for the past 15-years before recently servicing and recommissioning but is now good to go to a new owner.
