I'd probably just get an old Sony, Pioneer, or some such auto table from the 70's for cheap and put on a decent Shure or AT cart. If you got a buzz on to the extent that the hands are a shakin', you probably won't hear the difference in relative sound quality between different auto tables anyway! ;-)
Good automatic TT's
Hello,
I'd appreciate suggestions for a good used automatic TT. I'm very happy with my reference table but sometimes I like to listen without the need to jump up at the end of an LP to prevent damage to an expensive stylus. Auto cueing would be good too for when the hand gets shaky from mind altering substances.
I had a JVC Q5F and it was OK with a record clamp and Ortofon MC-5. I see some Denons (47 and 59F,s) and even some B&O's in the $200-500 range. Any experience with these in terms of reasonable sound or just always listen sober?
