    Turntable for 800-1200 euro

    Hi! I agree with others about bang for the buck regarding vintage vs new. But finding a gem in the wild is getting harder and harder. If you´r looking for new I thing maybe the Technics SL100c may be worth a look together with the Regas and Projects in that price range. Good Luck!

    Giving the cheap Black Diamond stylus som track time in the ADC ZLM cartridge on my diy acrylic truss supa-arm. 40 euro stylus and 20 euro tonearm (material cost) never sounded this good :D!

    What TT's do you folks have

    Recently finished this 66-pounder. A Lenco L75 based homebrew multilayerd plinth with a DIY Sideways Unipivot tonearm inspired by the Supatrac Blackbird and the Doozers in the Fraggle Rock TV-show. There should also be kudos to some old greek engineer philosopher guy who figured out the...

    Decent vintage Pioneer TT?

    I'm with Rob here. Look for TTs in the PL41,51,61,71 series. The hard to find direct drive P71 being the top dog of course. But the others no slouches either. Happy hunting!

    What to look for in an affordable Ultrasonic Cleaner for vinyl?

    I haven't been US cleaning any records for good year or so. Just haven't had the time and inclination for it. But after our life situation at home is starting to settle down, and also finishing a behemoth of a turntable build, I may just be ready to go at it again. Starting tonight with slowing...

    Modern day high elliptical tracking forces concern..

    Wouldn't running at lighter VTF and a cartridge with more compliant suspension also be beneficial for sound quality in general? I mean using less grove-energy to move the suspension around would mean more energy left for producing music? ... this coming from a guy who enjoys running an ADC ZLM...

    Turntable advice

    Hi! I have no experience with those turntables mentioned. But that Pioneer may be the one to look more closely at. But buying used fully automatics without knowledge or experience with repairing yourself,nor having a repair shop close can be a bit of a gamble. These kind of decks usually need...

    Is my Sony turntable HAUNTED?

    I would start troubleshooting the amp. The fading behaviour sounds more like an amp thing than a turntable thing. Either by connecting another tt if you have one or can borrow. If the problem persists it's something in the amp. If it goes away it's the turntable. Or by running the tt...
