Kodo The beat Kuzma 4 Point 14" SME 16" CAR 40 Package

 I am the original owner, All (except cart +-20hrs at the time I know the history) purchased from various dealers/mfgrs...

The package Includes:                                                                                                                 --  -Kodo The beat Turntable (and all accessories that came with it)                                                      Kuzma 4 Point 14" arm (all accessories that came with it incl extra headshell)                                Kuzma CAR 40 Cartridge ( a good local friend had this as a spare, I purchased from him with less than 20hrs)                                                                                                                                  Custom SME 16" Tone Arm (Purchased From RGGT) I then sent it to Alfred Kaiser SME Canada for a rewire and Brass weight upgrade.                                                                             

The Bad ....

 There is a little 1/8" Knick on the front (Ive included close up picture) 

I bumped it putting in a P15 regenerator (they have sharp corners)

The Good.... 

 This Kodo turntable was purchased new From Xact Audio (Steve Dobbins) and has remained in place on the rack since new..  I have always been a direct drive fan having owned several (15+) including an SP 10 MK3 that Steve built.

 By far the Kodo is the most dynamic, musical, lively for lack of a better term Ive ever owned... In short there are more expensive TT's out there but all you'll gain is a "thinner wallet"...  This due to the construction, Isolation and bang on accurate consistent speed. Even on my 102db system this turntable is dead quiet...                                                                                                               The Kuzma 4 Point 14" arm in combination with the CAR 40 cart again is one of the most user friendly combinations going,,,   From set up to VTA on fly. The CAR 40 cartridge has approx 100Hrs on it and is just broke in.  Once again contributing to the musicality of the set up.               The SME 16" was purchased by me from Rggt turntables then upgraded and gone through by Alfred Kaiser The SME repair In Ontario Canada. This arm has since been sparingly used, maybe 20-30hrs max.
