 Got this for $10 at an op-shop decades ago. Seen a bunch of them on Gumtree.
-Turntable, tape player/recorder, radio and amp. all-in-one. Originally seems to have come as a set with two speakers.
+Turntable, [[compact_cassette|tape]] player/recorder, radio and amp. all-in-one. Originally seems to have come as a set with two speakers. Apparently quadraphonic. Has screw connections for rear speakers, and mine came with a quadraphonic-capable (shibata) stylus.
-Belt driven. No fine speed adjustment. Just 33 and 45 RPM. Mine plays a bit slow.
+Belt driven. No fine speed adjustment. Just 33 and 45 RPM. No pots for speed setting I could find looking under the platter or by removing the base, maybe something if you really want to dig in there. Mine plays a bit slow. Subplatter diameter is 205mm.
 Not sure if the cartridge is the original supplied, and there is no serial number on it.

 Going by [[http://www.stereoneedles.com/audio-technica.html|this page]] stylus is category A (ATS10,11,12). \\
 According to [[https://www.audio-technica.com/en-gb/support/which-stylus-can-i-use-to-replace-my-discontinued-model/|this page]] can be replaced with any VMN model stylus.
+Went to fit a Nagaoka cartridge to it, but it doesn't fit on the headshell I have, because the finger lift is screwed onto the side, and an earth wire is soldered onto that. Got it to fit by moving the lift.
