Description
Denon DP-52F Direct Drive Automatic Turntable acquired from the estate of an audiophile. After testing this turntable, I disconnected it from a dedicated phono pre-amplifier which is required due to the audiophile quality Grado cartridge/stylus. This unit was connected to all high-end components including McIntosh and Threshold. This particular turntable is fitted with a wooden Grado Cartridge. I am not sure of the Grado model, but it surely looks and sounds impressive. All features and functions of this quality turntable work as they should. Auto function, cuing, target lamp, indicator lamps, tone arm adjustments, speeds, dust cover hinges, and everything else works 100%. Cosmetically, the dust cover has imperfections such as scratches, brush marks, etc. It is still totally functional and transparent with no visible cracks. Turntable plinth is very nice with one tiny chip on one of the back bottom corners. I touched it up with furniture marker, now even Superman would have a hard time finding and seeing it. I thoroughly tested this unit with a phono preamplifier on my own Adcom System before writing this description and it plays and sounds phenomenal in all respects. Please view the auction photos.

Thank you for your understanding and good luck.On Feb-10-25 at 19:04:38 PST, seller added the following information: The Grado cartridge on this turntable is the low output type. It needs a certain type of phono preamplifier to achieve reasonable volume. I dont remember the high-end phono preamplifier this unit was mated to when acquired. If you research Grado low output cartridges they have a couple of different models with descriptions. I am not sure which model Grado cartridge this unit has. Its wood with a large G in the front. Its definately low output, I cant turn up the volume to an acceptable level on my Technics receiver when playing an album. So please be aware that you will need a type of phono preamplifier to mate with this Grado cartridge/Stylus for use.
