BIC 940 Automatic Record changer RESTORED/NEAR AUDIOPHILE at carbon fiber cart 70s - Black

Video below!

Very awesome and convenient changer turntable that looks nice as well. Video below will show the actual player in action at an outside party to change my transmission in the hottest day of the summer so far. It sounded really awesome out there, with no distracting sounds from the motor or feedback or Rumble.

What was featured there was an original copy of Pink Floyd Animals, a Marantz 2240b, a pair of Klipsch heresies turned into Super heresies, and the Bic playing the cool vinyl. The heresies are still for sale as well as the BIC

Free shipping, and well packed and insured

Awesome '70s Survivor! One of the nicer and more high-end of the record changers and with a very reliable mechanism at that! Later models of these had a glitch where the fins inside of the carriage rusted or corroded together and you had to pull them apart and relubricate them every few years. These are the earlier ones with the non corrosive metals that don't have that issue at all. I counterweight on a very fancy tone arm, plus a brand new at cartridge with Magnetic pick up and carbon fiber cantilever, with diamond stylus, it's just pure awesome in a record changer. A great shining changer that won't hurt your records and makes them sound good enough to push the argument that records are better than cds. When you factor in how many of your CDs you have left, against the albums that you have, and which ones are playable, or which ones have digital rot and which one you can still hold the artwork in your hand and read it at this late date! Without your reading glasses, and the last guy on the hill, here this Bic record changer is still kicking butt, sounding great with a rock solid mechanism that's not going to hurt your records, but make it ever more evident which format one! When you put a stack of six records on this thing, listen to some awesome music and look cool for 3 hours without having to change it.

Things I did. I did a complete chassis Lube, was going to change the belt on this but these particular turntables have a very unique pink neoprene style latex belt that I've never seen go bad! Whatever the heck they made them out of they should make everything out of it. That's right it has the original belt and it sounds and works awesome. Lubricated inspected the motor it's fine. The bearings on the tone arm... amazing! I rebuilt the little holder for the changer that sits in the back on the left with a new washer to stabilize it and some felt and there to grab a hold of the records without scratching them. Of course the brand new Audio Technica cartridge and stylus. As of now that's all I'm going to buy! I've never had a complaint on any of them. They sound really great and they last for a long time and can handle the abuse! Better than any of the actual survivors from the '70s actually handled the abuse! I repaired the lucite acrylic cover which had a crack in the rear, excuse my term, which I used a small patch of acrylic that I had here to lay over and use some weld on number four to make a strong as original patch since it was in the rear and didn't need to be perfect but just strong enough. Dug up some special vintage hinges that are sprung as these are and strong enough to lift the entire dust cover and keep it suspended while changing the record, drilled some small holes in the rear, and installed an easy to maneuver locking screw to the hinge portion. The tacky vinyl/ Walnut veneer didn't survive so well after my basic repairs so instead of trying to find some more tacky vinyl Walnut veneer I just elected to paint it flat black with a satin black in the front and replace the Bic logo on the front. The platter has been cleaned everything inside has been cleaned everything has been inspected and works perfectly well. Check out the video below.

Packages will be insured, contents are sold as is and as described. But you'll have this video if they do damage it to verify it was a good working turntable when it left. And was packed very well.
