hi good people,
On the hunt for a sort of decent sounding, but also modern looking and convenient second deck for my living room, where I have no place other than a wall shelf.
I can get a Technics SL J3 for 50 £ or a Pioneer PL L800 for 200£ . Both are tangential and look smooth/flat to place in the living room.
Else, i can go other way around and nominate my Yamaha P750 TT to be the secondary and get a big bro for primary listening but these would cost 600£ , either a DENON DP 67L with both arms, or an Ariston RD 40 with SME 3009 arm.
The DENON I heard/read a lot about and love the design and the auto stop, but would be worried about the fiddly electronics , the ariston I have no clue about, just like the look and the arm should be decent I guess.
Opinions please. Thank you in advance.
