On offer is a remarkable and iconic record turntable with stylish retro image forever linked to Stanley Kubricks notorious 1971 film Clockwork Orange’. It is the rare, very collectable and much sought-after JA Michell Transcriptor Hydraulic Reference Turntable.
The seller has owned it since new and it remains in good working order after being carefully stored unused for more than 30 years. It is regarded as a British design classic, with many quirky and delightful features including built-in stylus brush, a drop-down leg to support the opened dust cover and a silicon oil bath to regulate playing speed.
In the world of hifi this turntable has achieved celebrity status and will appeal to specialist collectors keen to find a good, clean example of its kind, or to retro and vinyl enthusiasts wishing to enjoy mid-century modern audio technology at its finest.
Its been the sellers pride and joy and it will be a wrench to let it go, but its down-size time!  The price reflects the rarity and fine condition, and we note these turntables appear to move quickly whenever listed on eBay – the most recent selling for just under 2,000. Our asking price therefore offers a great investment opportunity in 20th Century popular technology.
Shipping note: The turntable is listed as Collection only, mainly through fear that the silicon oil reservoir might otherwise leak en route. If collection isn’t possible, or if you reside outside the UK, we would consider shipping after a discussing the risk factors and reaching a joint decision about how best to deliver it safely to its new home.
