    Wish you would have shown close-ups of the switches and tonearm.

    I just finished my Pioneer MU 41 (motor unit) with a Sigma plinth and a Micro Seiki ma77, 11 inch tonearm. 100v Japanese unit. Agree that they are the best for the money Pioneer ever. I got the 60hz spindle. A huge deal with 100v 60s tables. I used a oil impregnated plastic from work for the thrust bearing.
