Hello A friend of mine picked up a long-play "C2" though on the name plate it has 2-C as a model number. It is slightly disabled as someone sawed off the legs !? I remember being impressed when I saw it live as it had 3 reproducers, great condition, and lots of LP records, 10 & 12 inch. He put details of it here (always great to share!) http://www.romfi.com/category.cfm?Category=%3B%21A%5D%23X%3C8DPWX%2BR%2C8%2A%3AN4%28%5FAZ%40KP%2ES%2B%5C%407JL7%29%0A&CFID=192262&CFTOKEN=28694859&review=%21%23L8%5D%0A best wishes Rob On 5/29/06, John Maeder <appywander at hotmail.com> wrote: > > Got it.
