★Rare vintage masterpiece! Electrolytic capacitors and transistors have been given a minor maintenance to improve rotation problems caused by aging! I was using it separately from the DP-1200 for listening, but I have purchased a new DP-1000 and am in the process of creating an original machine, so I am releasing this model! It is still in active condition and can be used immediately! ★DENON DP-1700 Released May 1975. Direct drive with AC servo motor ★Price at the time of release: ¥58,000 ※ The starting salary around 1975 was around ¥130,000 per month for university graduates. ★Equipped with a tonearm modeled after the DA-305! ▪️Details▪️ - Headshell: Victor's genuine headshell, PH-8 - Cartridge: DENON DP-500M included VM type cartridge (audio-technica AT10G OEM product) with needle - Accessories: 5-pin RCA phono cable (used) 【Operation Check】 ● 33 and 45 RPM speeds are good!
