Here i am selling my fathers Michell Gyrodec Turntable. I endeavour to be as honest as possible with the description, however please be aware i am not a Hi-Fi expert. I am selling this on behalf of my father who is selling his house and downsizing, unfortunately this includes his stereo system and sadly the Gyrodec has got to go. Plinth & Lid This the full plinth model including hinged lid and dates from the early to mid 1980s.The plinth and lid are in good condition with no chips or deep scratches. This is not the clear plinth but rather the smoked acrylic one.The plinth also features the brass Gyrodec Badge, the brass itself has become mottled over time (my dad wasnt one for polishing) this can be seen in picture two. However i am sure that brasso should revive it. TurntableThe turntable is in good working condition and has been tested at both 33 1/3 & 45rpm and works perfectly. The bearing oil just been replaced. It is worth mentioning that there is an ever so slight grinding noise coming from the spindle. This is presumably due to thrust ball within the spindle becoming slightly worn. This is an easy fix as the thrust ball can be accessed without tools and i am told that a new thrust ball can acquired from Michell. This noise is only audible when there is no music playing, and is barely noticeable. I only bring it up to be as honest as possible. Something else worth pointing out is that the suspension towers are missing the caps/covers. To my knowledge i dont ever remember these being on the turntable. However should you want to replace them i am told that Michell can supply them. Tonearm & Cartridge The Turntable has recently been refitted with an unbadged Rega RB-250 Tonearm after the wiring on the previous RB-250 became damaged. Although the current tonearm does not have any Rega branding on it (it previously was fitted to a Technics deck) comparing it to the removed arm it is absolutely identical and clearly an RB-250.The tonearm is in good working order. As im sure the eagle eyed among you will have noticed the turntable is fitted with a relatively cheap Audio Technica cartridge. Although it is perfectly functioning it has only been fitted to demonstrate that the turntable is in working order. It would be assumed that whoever purchases the turntable would want to fit a more suitable cartridge, however i will still include the Audio Technica in the sale. Power Supply The unit comes with the Michell Gyropower PSU unit. This was an upgrade and a passive device with a transformer and extensive RLC filtering of the motor voltage. I have been told that these sell between £200-£400 To Summarise this is a fantastic turntable and is in good working order with the exception of the bearing noise. It would benefit from being set up by somebody with more experience and expertise than myself. It also would be worth considering having it serviced, bearing it mind it is at least 30 years old. Below is a link to the turntable in action. (just dont just judge its sound quality, its playing out of a relatively cheap amp and speakers in the middle of my kitchen. Not exactly an ideal listening experience.)https://youtube.com/shorts/BgMvE90zKS4 Collection only from Scarborough, North Yorkshire. If you have any questions please ask.

It has one or two, very minor ‘flea-bites’ to the plinth but as you can see, it’s still a lovely well looked after example.
