A great table-I recently purchased a used 160 super-I bought it because it has the same arm I'm using on my new (2000-2001) Xerxes 10-the Premier MMT! I can swap cartridges, listen to a 'linn-like' deck, etc., etc. Plus, it has that great LP-12-like Rosewood base. I too am a bit worried-the power supply that comes with the table is a bit touchy-I've e-mailed Thorens asking for replacements, but never received any return messages. The table is nice, and you should hold onto it even if/when you 'upgrade,' because it will always be a nice backup-and that auto-lift at the end doesn't hurt either.
