hello...

I'm wondering.... what are your opinion on Michell Reference Hydraulic
turntable???
Hom much do you think i'ts worth???

I'm asking this because I have a chance to get my hands on one but I'm not
so shure about it...
it look fabulous but does it sound so?

Everything is in original state... I belive that only the stylus has been
changed...
The previous owner sad that it didn't play often... and he is the first
owner.... (it has all the papers.... manual and all...)

so... what are your opinions, and how much do you think it's worth??

here is a web link if someone is interested

Just for fun, I checked Orion Blue Books.

According to Orion:

The table was made from 1977 - 1982

The retail used value is $230 (US)
Original MSRP was $750
-------
I thought maybe these amounts were typos, so I checked the price on the same
table without the arm: $500

Looks like an awful lot of table (appearance wise) for $750 brand new.

Any idea how much the guy paid for it? It would certainly help determining how
much it might be worth now. Would also clear up my question as to whether
Orion's quoted figures are typographical errors.

Sorry I can't be of more help...
