Description
Sheena is an original (almost 50 years old) Systemdek Transcription Turntable, made by Dunlop Systems in Troon, Scotland. At the time she was considered a very high-end audiophile turntable – and, IMHO, so she remains. Her CLD (constrained layer damping) plinth was certainly ahead of its time, and she has internal suspension, three adjustable feet, a very heavy metal platter and a superb spindle bearing.
Sheena needed some TLC, and I was very happy to oblige. She has been cleaned, repaired, serviced, her suspension tuned and set-up properly and she is spinning perfectly. As with all Systemdek turntables from this era, her Nextel finish is not perfect, but it is actually in pretty good shape – see the photos. Her smoked plastic lid and hinges are in very good condition as well.
Sheena sports a superb classic Grace 747 tonearm and an excellent Nagaoka MP11 cartridge. How does she sound? Very, very good – I am happy to play my best vinyl LP records on this deck!
Sheena can be viewed, by arrangement, in Durbanville prior to purchase. She comes with a 30-day guarantee (excluding any damage caused by the user). She is available for R4,250 cash, and comes with one LP from my “donation” pile, and a bottle of MusicMan Magic record cleaning fluid. Regret no shipping. Please see my other ads for more turntables tables I am selling.

Record stabilizer
Many modern vinyl records can be thin, flexible and as a result, warped or bowed. As most records are not perfectly flat on the turntable platter, sound reproduction may suffer due to unwanted resonances. Warped records tend to contact the platter at the outer edge only. As a result, Anti-Skating may be less effective and record wear is thus increased. The Record Weights bring the record into intimate contact with the platter and thus delivers sound improvements whether warped or not! The Clamp firmly tightens down on the record evenly, minimising vibration due to improved contact between the vinyl and the Platter.
