Anyone looking for a Q-up
« on: December 26, 2016, 02:22:30 AM »
I was going to order one and discovered Amazon Prime is offering two of them for $69. One of them is $49. Let me know if interested before I order. It's an auto arm lift for manual turntables.

I am up for that PBJ, count me in.  The VPI needs that.  Can Paypal funds to you.

Crap. I just went to order and it says the "2 pack"is no longer available. It's only available at $49 each which is usually the price on Amazon. I'm going to give it a few days and see if the special offer comes up again.

Good news PepĂ©. I just checked Amazon and it said the offer of 2 for $69.99 will be available January 4th so I ordered them. The order showed estimated tax of $4.20.

Here is an elegant, but rather expensive option.  https://www.musicdirect.com/analog-accessories/Little-Fwend---Tonearm-Lifter-(High)


I am lucky to have an original Audio Technica safety raiser.

I used to have the Audio Technica version on my Thorens TD-160 I had bought new in the 70's. I sold the Thorens to a buddy back in the 90's complete with a Shure V15 II Improved cartridge for $25! He still uses it to this day.

The AT is on epay, at crazy prices.  I bought mine new in the late 1970s for $15.
