Sony PS-F5 Flamingo Linear Tracking Turntable Vintage Vinyl Record Player
Nice condition, well looked after. Slight yellowing of case and very minor surface scratching. Everything is complete and works as it should. These were only manufactured in the early 80s and are becoming increasingly rare and sought after, especially in fully working order such as this example. Plays standing up or laying down. Steel chassis with plastic outer casing. Direct drive turntable motor drive. Linear tracking tone arm. Plays at 33.3 or 45 RPM. Plays 7″ or 12″ records. Has 2 headphone jacks, which can be used as line out to plug in speakers or to connect to an amplifier. Can connect Bluetooth transmitter to connect to Bluetooth speakers. Fully automatic operation: soft-touch button to start play, raise/ lower the tone arm, move tone arm up/down the record or stop play. Manual disk hold knob to secure the record in place once it’s been inserted into the player’s slot. LED indicator shows the position of the tone arm as it moves across the record. The feet in its base rotate out for stability when playing vertically, and twist back in for storage. Takes 4 standard AA batteries. The battery compartment is clean without any signs of corrosion. Will play for around 8.5 hours on batteries. Can also be powered from the mains via a 6 Volt mains adapter or USB cable from any USB socket (I will be listing these separately). Has wall mounting points so it can be hung from a wall. Plays 180g records no problem. Weighs 1.7kg with batteries. The record in the photos is for display only and is not included in the sale. Batteries are not included. I do not know the state of the stylus- it sounds good to me, but may need replacing. I believe this unit to be in great condition and see no reason why it would have any problems, but it is nearly 40 years old- I can’t guarantee it. Can be collected from me in Brighton or Leatherhead (J9, M25)- cash on collection.
