VINTAGE STEREO TURNTABLE
KENWOOD
'CONCRETE BASE'
MODEL KD-5070
STEREO TURNTABLE
DIRECT DRIVE
MANUAL OR FULLY AUTOMATIC
RESTORED / REFURBISHED
#...0493
Made in Japan
Circa 1978-80
for sale
We have just had the table completely gone through
by our turntable technician, cleaning inside
and out, lubricating mechanism, adjusting tone arm
height, lead IN / OUT, 'auto start / return' mechanism and testing
performance. Internal speed pots, cleaned & adjusted for
centering. Then speed checked and verified for accuracy with
our factory test strobe disc against built-in
strobe monitor. External / 'user' adjustable platter
speed potentiometers cleaned for smooth speed transition and
'glitch-free' adjustment. Gimbal bearing, counter weight and
anti-skating all adjusted and verified for accuracy.
Tone-arm height corrected. Stop mechanism
adjusted and tested. All functions work great! Original dust cover just
had fresh buff and while does still have light scuffs, looks presentable and is certainly 'functional'.
No cracks or chips!
Dust cover hinges are strong and hold cover in it's
'upright' position fine. Original rubber mat, still supple and
flexible with no hardening.
We also
re-installed and optimized the existing
Audio-Technica AT-11,
Elliptically cut
Diamond, magnetic cartridge and optimized the tone arm for it. (If
you prefer an up-grade you may also choose from our selection of new
Audio Technica cartridges that we can also set up and ship with it for
the additional cartridge cost.) You can readily connect this table
to any receiver, Integrated amplifier with a standard magnetic phono
input, or a Pre-amp. To connect to computer for burning CD's just order
one of our inexpensive Phono Pre-Amps and cable kits. Again, this table
looks and works great!
Commonly referred to as the Kenwood 'Concrete Base' or 'marble base'
turntable (not really concrete or marble / cultured marble / faux marble
, but that's what everyone has called it). It's actual 'technical term'
is 'ARCB' (Anti-Resonance
Compression Base) which is a material molded from limestone
particles, glass powders and unsaturated Polyester resin to provide the
ideal base structure. It's likely essentially Corian®. What makes it so
special on a turntable is it's acoustic characteristics. It's
homogeneous, dense, and very heavy so it does not resonate like most
materials turntable are commonly made of.
First one we have in 15 years to sell (the other one that came in went
to ME! and is my main turntable in my office). The Kenwood KD-5070 is
one of the most famous and 'sought after' of the "classic" 1970's
Turntables.
This was a 'one owner' unit and like all the gear we acquired from her,
was in great condition. Other than the dust cover issues this unit looks
near NEW. Yes, it's expensive, but if I didn't already have one myself,
it wouldn't even have hit the page. These are getting 'rarer' all the
time due sadly, to amateurs inadequately packing them, only to have them
DESTROYED during shipment. Sorry, but it's a 'soap box' I have to get
on.
Features:
- Massive 'ARCB' (Anti-Resonance Compression Base material) plinth
- Direct Drive
- Manual or Fully Automatic Operation
- Heavy 3.5 lb aluminum platter / heavy rubber mat assembly for reduced
low frequency resonance and speed stability
- Classic "S" tone arm
- Standard 1/2" mount quick disconnect head shell

- 33 1/3 and 45 RPM speeds with separate strobe controls for each speed

We have just had the table completely gone through

The Pioneer PL-514 is the
'Belt Drive' version of the famous Pioneer PL-518.
It would be almost unheard of to find a Pioneer PL-514 turntable that
did not have the natural rubber feet deteriorated and this one is no
example, so that is why we are including a set of fresh, 2", 50 Duro,
Sorbothane® hemispheres to isolate it from it's environment (it is said
that Sorbothane simulates vibration isolation properties similar to water). Super
quality at a great mid-price range. Looks great! Very handsome
cosmetics.

We have just had the table completely gone through cleaning inside and
out. Extensive service to the internal mechanism taking about 4 tech
hours. Entire 'Auto' mechanism disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed.
Platter bearing completely disassembled, cleaned of old varnished lube
and re-lubed for trouble-free service. New main drive belt installed.
'Toothed' changer belt cleaned and reconditioned. Lead-in / Lead-out
adjusted for typical albums. Unfortunately we don't have a 'Long /
Changer / stacker' spindle for this one, only the short 'single play'.
Speed checked and verified for accuracy with our factory strobe disc.
Gimbal bearing, counter weight and anti-skating all adjusted and
verified for accuracy. Stop mechanism adjusted and tested. All 'Auto'
functions work great! We also installed new RCA patch cords and
're-sprung' the cartridge carrier contacts. Unfortunately while the
original dust cover is not in 'banner' cosmetic condition due to typical
scuffing, it is intact, crack free, and did have a light buff. Both
cover hinges do function fine. We also re-installed and optimized the
existing Pickering V-15, magnetic cartridge with it's, elliptically cut
diamond stylus. (If you prefer an up-grade you may also choose from
our selection of new Audio Technica cartridges that we can also set up

HOME AUDIO STEREO TURNTABLE
MODEL AT-LP240USB
DIRECT DRIVE
FULLY MANUAL
WITH A MM, DIAMOND CARTRIDGE NOW INCLUDED
NEW
for sale
One
of the few 'QUALITY' turntables available under a $GRAND these days! The
Audio-Technica AT-LP240-USB stereo turntable. Similar in design to some of the
vintage turntable models, such as the Kenwood KD-550 'concrete base', the Sony
PS-T1, and the Technics SL-1500, SL-1600MK2 or SL-D2 turntable models. This
professional stereo turntable features a super high-torque, direct-drive motor
for quick start-ups yet is perfectly quiet. Classic 'S' shaped tone arm with
'universal' head-shell that allows mounting of most any 'quality', 1/2'
cartridge, either MM (moving magnet) or MC (moving coil). Tone-arm mounted in
high quality 4-point, Gimbol bearing.
The AT-LP240-USB plays back 33-1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records (to correctly
play 78rpm records, you will need a proper '78' stylus / cartridge). Its
built-in phono preamp enables the turntable to be connected to a wide variety of
music and home entertainment systems, powered speakers, and to A/V receivers
that do not include a dedicated phono input. The turntable includes PC- and
Mac-compatible Audacity® software that converts the audio on a record to MP3,
WAV or other format digital audio files.
NEW UPDATE--- We're now including the Audio-Technica AT-311E, MM, Elliptically
cut diamond cartridge with tables purchased from us.
Table has great mass at almost 30 lbs!
Features:
- Direct drive high-torque motor
- Fully-Manual operation
- Selectable 33/45/78 RPM speeds (78 RPM speed is a bit of a 'moot point' as
it's pretty difficult to impossible to find a 78 capable cartridge these days)
- Professional weight cast aluminum platter with slip mat (no PLASTIC platters
here, unlike many of the NEW tables out there!)
- Classic 'S' style tone-arm
- High quality 4-point Gimbol bearing
- ½-inch mount universal head shell
- Strobe monitored, adjustable platter speed
- Adjustable tone-arm counter weight
- Adjustable 'Anti-Skating' control
- Internal Built-in Phono Pre-Amp of decent quality so if you MUST use this with
some sort of 'home-theater-surround-sound -5.1, 7.2, or 8.BR549 receiver' that
the manufacturer forgot to include the phono pre-amp on. If you have a 'REAL
receiver', ie, an old-school, vintage, 2-channel receiver or integrated amp or
pre-amp with a phono pre built-in, then you can flip a switch and bypass the
'built-in' phono preamp.
- USB output—connects directly to your computer for plug-&-play use
- Forward or reverse play (this is a DJ feature, and if you value your vinyl or
cartridge, DON'T USE 'Reverse'! If you have a crappy cartridge and are playing
'Frisbees', then 'go for it' if you're so inclined!
- *Comes with Mac- and PC-compatible

Tables with ceramic cartridges can be connected to any AUX, Tape input, CD
input, Computer Sound Card input or any input on any receiver / integrated
amplifier regardless of whether it has a phono pre-amp or not.
Tables with ceramic cartridges and non-adjustable tone
arms, are generally not recommended for critical listening situations,
recordings and / or if your record collection is in above average
condition and you want to keep it that way. If any of the previous
criteria apply, you should consider one of the higher quality turntables
listed above utilizing magnetic cartridges and
fully adjustable, more critically designed tone arms. Please email or phone

Note: The "Changer / Stacker" functions work best when used with
pre 1980's albums due to the
larger center hole diameter of older records.
They also can sometimes work with up to 4 or 5 albums,
but function best
with 3 or less stacked at a time.
Also, for optimum performance, special a special
stylus is required for 78 RPM records. While you will get sound from a
33 / 45 RPM stylus, it is best not to use the same stylus for both 78's
and then for 33 1/3's / 45's.

Concerned about how your turntable
will be packed for safe transit.
You should be!!!
The vast majority of turntables shipped from individual sellers,
especially the one's from on-line auctions, are damaged in transit due to inadequate / inappropriate packing.
It is
VERY difficult to do successfully and most folks do not have the
experience or materials to do it anything close to adequately.

example, so that is why we are including a set of fresh, 2", 50 Duro,

We have just had the
table completely gone through by our turntable technician, cleaning
inside and out, cleaning and re-lubricating internal mechanism,
adjusting tone arm height, lead IN / OUT and 'auto return' mechanism and
testing performance. Motor was completely disassembled, cleaned and

bearing, counter weight and anti-skating all adjusted and verified for
accuracy. Stop mechanism adjusted and tested. All functions work great!
The original dust cover just had a fresh buff and looks great with only
the lightest of wear. No cracks, splits or chips! Dust cover hinges are
strong and hold cover in it's 'upright' position fine. Original rubber
platter mat, still supple and flexible with no hardening. We also
re-installed and optimized the existing Pioneer PC-50, Diamond, magnetic
cartridge and optimized the tone arm for it. (If
you prefer an up-grade you may also choose from our selection of new
Audio Technica cartridges that we can also set up and ship with it for

The Pioneer PL-A35D is a slightly later version of the 'sought after'
PL-40-61 series tables by Pioneer (although this one does not have the
problematic motor and tone-arm cue issues of those). The 'D' means that
there was an optional 'Start / Stop' wired remote control available at
the time (not included with this particular unit). The 'D'
version was not available in North America, but like a lot of the
'upper-end' models by the main stream electronics manufacturers was
reserved for the Military and the more discerning Asian and European
audio markets. Our main stream market wants stuff cheap with quality
being a 'down the line' or after-thought feature (we might
say we want quality, but we primarily
really want it 'cheap' and
the two are rarely 'bed fellows'), so many manufacturers
don't bother bringing the 'good stuff' over here. Sorry if that hurts,
but that's how it was then and commonly still is. I digress...
This table is built on a super heavy, real Walnut wood veneered base.
The spring suspended 'sub-chassis' dampens environmental vibrations and
the belt drive system assures super quiet operation.
Don't worry about the 'arm functions' taking away from the platter speed
stability as there is a separate, second motor to handle the arm
functions. From a brochure, "The belt drive
platter flange is precision finished, a feature that helps reduce wow and flutter to an
absolute minimum & the tone arm is moved by a separate, geared motor."
Great, classic lines and quality for about any
range of audio system. Super quality at a great price range. Very
handsome cosmetics.
Features:
- Super Quiet 'Belt-Drive'
- Fully Automatic Operation with a second motor to
handle the arm functions
- Heavy 2.75 lb aluminum platter / heavy rubber mat assembly for reduced

We have just had the table completely gone through inside and out. A new
arm drive belt installed to replace the old hardened / stiff one. Entire
tone-arm guide tube removed, all the old, coagulated silicon lube on the
tone-arm mechanism removed and new silicon applied. The 'worm' drive
gears also cleaned of old lube and re-lubed. All of these operations are
a must on these linear tables. We also removed the motor spindle,
cleaned the bearing / bushing and re-lubed. (A plus with this JVC
linear table over some others is that it is not prone to the internal
plastic assemblies shrinking and cracking like MANY of the other linear
tables. Trust us, we've been into most of them internally). Internal
speed centering pots adjusted. Speed checked and verified for accuracy
with factory test strobe disc. Original rubber mat, still supple and
flexible with no hardening. We also inspected and re-installed the
Audio-Technica AT-402EP, diamond stylus, magnetic cartridge. (If you
prefer an up-grade you may also choose from our selection of new Audio
Technica cartridges that we can also set up and ship with it for the

SOLD 11/29/11
We have just
completely gone through the turntable disassembling it, then cleaning
inside and out, cleaning then lubricating mechanism & adjusting tone arm
and testing performance. New platter drive belt installed for
trouble-free performance. We also inspected and reconditioned the
toothed speed belt. Speed checked and verified for accuracy with both
internal strobe and the shop calibrated strobe disc. Super quality
4-Point Gimbal tone-arm bearing, counter weight and anti-skating all
adjusted and verified for accuracy. Stop mechanism adjusted and tested.
All functions work properly! Unfortunately the original dust cover has a
crack running across the entire top (see photos above). The crack was
sealed w/ plastic weld. Still structurally sound, but not too pretty.
Hinges have typical 'weakness' and will hold the dust cover up for a
limited time. Other cosmetic issue with the table is some finish wear to
the corners of the plinth (again, see detail photos). Original rubber
platter mat, lays perfectly flat with no bubbles. We also re-installed
and optimized the existing Ortofon "Concord" cartridge with a like new
condition, elliptically cut diamond stylus. This table is designed for
"Concord" style carts.
You can readily connect this table to any receiver, Integrated amplifier
with a standard magnetic phono input, or a Pre-amp. To connect to
computer for burning CD's just order one of our inexpensive Phono
Pre-Amps and cable kits. Again, this table looks and works great!!
____________________________________
If you're looking for a manual table, but one that doesn't keep
'grinding' at the end of the record (in case you go to sleep while
listening) here's your table. 'Quarter Manual' operation meaning that it
picks up the tone arm and shots off at the end of the record. Great
quality and easy to use. What more could you ask for?! The Dual 505.
Floating plinth to dampen resonance and vibrations and Ultra-Low-Mass
tone arm coupled with 'mass independent' tracking force Gimbal bearing.

We have just had the table completely gone through
by our turntable technician, cleaning inside
and out, cleaning and re-lubricating
mechanism, adjusting tone arm height, and testing performance.
Internal speed pots, adjusted for centering and speed
checked and verified for accuracy with our

We have just had the table completely gone through
this table doing EXTENSIVE internal mechanism work.
Most of the internal lubes had 'gelled' on this one, so entire 'auto'
mechanism had to be disassembled, cleaned and all movable points
re-lubed. We also disassembled, cleaned and re-filled the cueing
mechanism with fresh 500,000 silicone fluid.
We also disassembled the 'Anti-Skate' mechanism, cleaned and re-lubed w/
silicone lube. The external (user adjustable) speed pot was cleaned for
perfect platter stability and both internal speed pots adjusted for
perfect speed at 'centered' position.
Gimbal bearing, counter weight and anti-skating all adjusted and
verified for accuracy. Entire table was cleaned
inside and out, tone arm lead in / out / tracking accuracy
checked with our factory test vinyl and
overall performance tested.
Speed checked and verified for accuracy. All
functions work great! Only, issue is that the dust-cover hinges, while
there, will not hold the cover in the "Up" position. Original dust cover
still very good condition and looks great, but
unfortunately like many of the Sony tables we've had, the hinges are
'toast' due to a bad design, so now it's a 'lift-off' (unless you wish
to drill the hinges and install small bolts to re-attach the dust
cover). No cracks, chips or breaks.
We also re-installed, the existing Audio-Technica
AT-5011 Elliptically cut Diamond stylus, magnetic cartridge and
optimized the tone arm for it. (If you prefer an up-grade you may
also choose from our selection of new Audio Technica cartridges that we
can also set up and ship with it for the additional cartridge cost.)
