Local Craigslist find. Older audiophile that was moving away and decided to sell most everything. He said he purchased it new in 1979 because it was part of a combo deal that came with his stereo system but didn’t really use it because he already had another turntable that he preferred. It was there too but I didn’t really get a look at it as most things we’re getting boxed up for moving. He also had a couple of old Nakamichi tape decks that he was going to be selling later. I know one was a lower end unit but the other looked like it was one of the CR7 models. He said that is was referred to as the "dragon killer".
