Technics EPA 100P - Tonearm

Hey all!
I found this forum and think you can help with advice - I came across a tonearm at the flea market which I understand is the better type.
Since I am not at all in need of such a tone arm, I would be grateful if anyone can advise on its history & perhaps a value before a sale? It is in mint condition and comes from a warehouse to a radio station.

Thank you in advance
Mike

nandric, 

It's an accessory counter weight with an auxiliary weight for the EPA-100.  I believe you can balance an SPU with it, not that I'd take it to that extreme.  I have one, but have yet to use it or compare it to the stock weight.

Your ZYX  is 5 g. As such a kind of an exception among the MC carts.

So there is no contradiction because your ZYX does not satisfy

the mentioned  condition of 9 g .


correstion:
Zyx Premium 4D (with Silver Base 2) total weight is 7.9 gm.
Zyx Live 18 shell is 12 gm (heavies than technics stock shell).
the combination works perfectly on EPA-100

Dear chakster, Your ZYX together with ZYX Live 18 headshell

is heawier than 9 g. But even your ZYX with remarcable weight

of 7,9 g is not equal to 9 g.  BTW I deed not mentioned headshells

in my post.

Dear jpjones, If I knew about this ''added weight'' (SH 100 G1) I

would never sell my EPA 100,mk 2.
