Model 265 - Cocobolo

We have one prime model 265 is in stock. With all hardwood construction this is a rare opportunity to enjoy both the sonic and visual beauty of this Teres classic. This table is a demo unit.

Price: $4400 (Verus Motor)
Price: $3550 (Signature Motor)




Model 260 - Cocobolo

This 260 comes with an unusually colored solid cocobolo base. The matching armboard has been drilled for an SME tonearm and there is no option for a new matching cocobolo armboard. A composite armboard that matches the platter can be provided for an extra $200.

Price: $3350 (Verus Motor)
Price: $2500 (Signature Motor)



Model 265 - Rosewood, 2 arm, Blemished

This is a rare 265 with 2 tonearm mounting points. The base has several rather serious cosmetic problems. The most serious flaw is in the center front shown here. Another smaller flaw shown here is on the end just behind where the motor sits. Last of all there is a small flaw shown here on the bottom edge near the large end of the teardrop shape. Great sound, but compromised appearance.

Price: $2300 (Signature Motor Only)



Model 280 - Baltic Birch

This is a prototype turntable that never made it to market. Made entirely from Baltic birch this table a has an unusual look. Sound wise this turntable is roughly on par with the model 260 but sounds different. It is a bit less detailed but has a smooth, rich presentation and a very big sound-stage.

Price: $3000 (Verus Motor)
Price: $2200 (Signature Motor)



Motor Units

 We have one used Signature motor that has been traded in for a Verus motor upgrade.

Misc Items

 A hard to find 16" x 20" BDR "Shelf for the Source". Lightly used with no scratches in the original box. A very nice turntable platform ($1100 new).

Price: $500



A used Morch DP-6 tonearm with a blue dot armwand. This arm has the hard to get black finish that is my favorite. The UP-6 is one of the tonearms that I most highly recommended. The DP-6 is a great match with Teres 200 and 300 series turntables. Includes standard Morch phono cable.

Price: $1600



ZYX Airy3S Cartridge. New in the original box. The low output version with silver coils. A great cartridge for a fraction of the original price (~$3700). A great match with the above DP-6.

Price: $1500



M-80 Phono Cable This a superb phone cable from the Bolder Cable Company. These are not well know but are top contenders. With copper Bullet plugs.

Price: $120


We have some leftover assembled battery options. These include a charger circuit for a SLA (sealed lead acid battery) and a relay to disconnect the charger circuit. Works with batteries from 4 to 18 AH. These are ideal for adding battery power for pre-amps and DACs.

Price: $20
