That is a legendary machine! I would love to get one in good working order but shipping it to Canada is always a headache. It appears to be equipped with a GE VRII cartridge which also had smooth sound on 78s and mono LPs. The stylus is backed by a solid rubber pad which allows very little vertical movement and, I believe, leads to less surface noise. Hard to get stylii for it though!
