Braun PS 500 turntable in black:
Braun described its devices in the brochures like this:
"The HiFi turntable PS 500 is a highly qualified presence device. Its turntable runs particularly smoothly and quietly. Its tonearm is mounted almost friction-free and is balanced so that no gravity acts on the needle. The platter and arm are spring-mounted in the housing, hydraulically damped and therefore largely insensitive to shock and vibration.
For playback, the turntable must be connected to an amplifier with an input for magnetic pickup systems. Only high-quality (hi-fi) stereo amplifiers can bring out the exceptional qualities of the PS 500. Its qualities would be wasted if the PS 500 were operated together with ordinary equipment."

Generally in very good condition with normal signs of use over the years.
