ID Help Please

A bit of help please…
ID required for the TT, arm and cart.
Thanks


Looks like a Voyd turntable with a Helius orion arm.

My guess too.

Looks like a Valdi?
Can’t comment on cartridge, as it’s hard to see in that pic.

It would be hard to imagine a series of pics that make this trickier short of shooting the fucking thing from the underside but it might be a Grado Gold.

Thanks all. Thought the cart might be a bit tricky.
I’m not buying, but a friend may be and he hasn’t a clue what to pay the seller

as little as he is able to negotiate? :wink:

prices are all over the place, last one on hififorsale was listed for £550 with a Rega 300

What is that “residue” by the bearing spindle?
Was the platter broken and bodged?
I’d definitely be putting that into consideration when deciding on a price.

I used to have one of these, lovely little deck.

JB - that’s the 3 motor deck (like mine).
The Valdi is the 2 motor “little brother”.

That’s a very early one from the first 100 or so. I’d have assembled it!

I sold my the voyd with Helius Orion mk3 for £1500 around 10 years ago

Cosmetically, It’s had a tough paper round - like anything of that age (+ apparent tough innings) a service at best will be required - parts at worst, time is a certainty.
These things affect price gravely. Cart is an unknown, arm bearings, tt motor, main bearing, lids swirled, the early AM yellow stripe phono cable is a fickle mistress. etc etc. If buying blind, I wouldn’t go past £450 here.
If this sounds low ball, add up the potential headaches and time and see how far towards top whack you get total.

Agreed. There’s also a BP300b SE plus a few other bits. I’ve seen pictures and all the kit looks in the same condition.
Plus 1k classical records which he doesn’t want
