Hate to part with this beloved piece. Belonged to my best friend who passed away. We would listen to vinyl for hours on this. The top cover was removed and lost because it lived in a vacuum enclosure. He was an audiophile of the highest order. Now, please note the tone arm lock is broken and can probably be fixed or replaced but that doesn’t affect playing or quality. It comes with a Premier PIB-1 for RCA output & grounding. The shock absorbing float system works well. I can’t speak to the stylus condition, assume you will replace it with your own. 1” tear in the felt of the plinth. See pic. I’d really like to sell this to an end user that loves music but would part with it to a dealer if necessary. Cheers and happy bidding!

Up for auction is a SOTA Pyxi Phono Preamp. Item is in excellent condition. Comes with unit, power supply, instructions, carton.

SOTA Sapphire Audiophile Turntable. Includes Sumiko Tonearm and Graco Cartridge. Vintage 1980’s. Turntable is in very nice condition and works and sounds great. Lid is cracked as shown in picture (but glued together securely) which is why it’s priced as it is. This is the non-vacuum version.

This 1980's SOTA Sapphire turntable is a must-have for any audiophile. With its Origin Live Onyx tonearm and numerous upgrades, it produces high-quality sound that will transport you to another world. The turntable is compatible with vinyl records of all sizes and has a sleek design that will look great in any home. As a used item, this turntable may have some signs of wear, but its overall performance is still exceptional. Upgrades:   ·      New Origin Live Onyx Tonearm ·      Updated platter base made by Mag-lev (magnetic, no bearings) ·      New Springs and footers with base ·      Low-vibration 3-phase AC Synchronous motor with Phoenix Engineering Condor motor control.   This is an amazing turntable and I hesitate to get rid of it but I am downsizing and am going to concentrate on digital unfortunately. This turntable new would be worth well over $3000. It sounds fantastic and with the upgrades will last a long time. This is a early 80’s Sota that has been upgraded with the above components within the last 2 years. Only blemish is the slight raising of wood on back side of plinth that has no effect on the table whatsoever. This table is huge and weighs a lot so local pickup only. You will not be disappointed. Thanks for looking.

PLEASE read the ad carefully!!!! Not all items in the main picture are included!!!!! I have here the famous turntable manufactured by Audio enthusiast Ken Fritz. If you dont know the name, he owned the million dollar sound system in Virginia. It was all over the news and videos went viral, etc. See below. These are super cool. The first 2 pictures represent the original set up. All following pics will be what is actually going in this auction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3T4hkPrSIY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45TfTvZLoao PLEASE NOTE!!!!!!!!! The TT I am selling has only the one Kuzma 4-point arm. No cartridge. The Rhea phono stage does NOT come with it. Also, I am providing 1 motor assembly not 3 as shown. The package must include the cabinet/base as it is so well engineered and should be a family. There is a lab grade isolation device Minus K isolator tuned to the weight of the TT. It was $3-4k alone!!!! The Kuzma arm is worth $3k+ alone. All of the brass hardware/cones, etc. come with the TT. The actual platter is from SOTA and it is the new magnetic bearing version. It is also the SOTA vacuum hold down version with its pump. Of all things the 1 thick aluminum shelves were custom made in Kens shop and shipped to Krell so they could match the anodizing to Kens Krell gear. Insane!!!! This will be a complete and running system even though the extra arms and motors will not be included. Everything fundamental for an operating system is included. Be aware you will need a heavy duty hand truck or cart of some kind AND at LEAST 2 VERY strong men. I will be able to help some. I will not ship unless you arrange for all logistics. I can meet the shipping team at the storage area for sure. I have broken it down as far as it will go. The resin and lead base is close to 300 lbs by itself. The total weight is 1400 pounds!!!!! It is so over-built it isnt funny. It was built to be the best in the world. Please dont hesitate to ask additional questions. To put a retail value on this package would be insane. I would say $20k+ easily. Again, we may need to be creative on pick up day. It would be best if it is reasonably warm! *****SO, I have had a lot of you asking if it can be purchased as it was regarding arms and motors. I still have all arms and 3 motors w/ mounts, etc. I will hold on to them for a bit. The 2 motors would add $2,000. If I part with the the 2 Kuzma Airlines, add $12k. All phono carts are gone. Good luck to all.

SOTA Star Vacuum Turntable Subchassis.

This Sota Comet turntable is a lovely example of the 1980s product, with its timeless design and high-quality materials. Sota, is known for superior craftsmanship and attention to detail, and this turntable is no exception. It has been tested and is fully operational, but the anti-skate on the Sumiko (Jelco) tonearm seems a bit fiddly. Platter, sub-platter, bearing, belt, motor and all wiring have been verified working. Included dustcover has a few cracks and hinges are missing. Overall, this unit is remarkable in appearance for its age. Dont miss out on this opportunity to own a premium turntable and highly-rated tonearm. Sold as parts or not working because it needs some TLC. Will ship in original Sota carton.
