Up for sale is my Townshend Audio Rock 7 turntable matched with a Helius Omega tonearm. Here's an excellent review of this legendary combo of two great, British-manufactured components: http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue62/townshend.htm Also, see Robert H. Levi's review of the Helius Omega here: "The best arm I've used to dateā¦ and that's no small achievement." http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue43/quickies.htm Indeed, I am confident whoever purchases this combo will be extremely happy with the sound. There is a special synergy here that is very, very difficult to beat. Great bass, huge soundstage, "master-tape" like sound - it completely destroys the Well Tempered Amadeus I owned previously. In fact, I am selling this rig only because I have switched to a Kuzma 4 Point - possibly the best tonearm in the world, with the exception of the $28,000 SAT. I am frankly struggling to get the new rig with the 4 Point to sound as good as the Townshend/Helius did! Will need another table to get there. (Townshend not compatible with the 4 Point, unfortunately.) Table and arm are in very good condition with a few minor signs of wear, but no significant flaws and overall the rig looks great. The table and tonearm will each be shipped separately - the tonearm in its original packaging and the table double boxed and packed by me. I have included an extra record clamp from Townshend as the original has an edge that's chipped, though it is still lovely and included in the sale. I also have included an extra bottle of bearing oii from Townshend, and two extra containers of damping fluid from Turntable basics, which sound excellent. I have also included an extra paddle with outriggers, which only need a simple, light adhesive to grip the paddle. Buyer pays $49 shipping plus fees. Pictures to follow later today or tomorrow, and holler in the meantime with any questions.
