Old German turntable

The Miracord 50 is an excellent rim-drive TT (like a Dual). It has a rather heavy tonearm - which I was planning to mount a Denon 103 on (probably a good match!). Should work well with low-compliance MC's! Definitely a collectible TT - and good German engineering! Someday I will buy a new headshell and get it out of storage! 

I also have on hand: 2 Dual's (1209 and 1229), a Garrard Lab 80, a Bogen/Lenco, and a Kenwood. All rim-drive. Along with 4 Empires, a Rek-O-Kut, a Fairchild, a VPI HW-19 and a Saul Marantz ST-7 linear-track. These are all belt-drive. And the list goes on ... I like collecting TT's and cartridges!

Just remembered that I have another rim-drive Rek-O-Kut (arm-less) in storage! And I would buy another Miracord if the price was right!

@roberjerman Great posts. Nothing to add except to say I have a Rek-o-Kut B12GH waiting for some love. 

@noromance : Definitely worth restoring! They had great (and powerful) motors - plenty of torque! My rim-drive Rek (with wood plinth) and Grace 707/Denon 103 sounded really good!
