There are many older fully automatic Duals that can sound very good. And if for the purposes of having others use it many are fully automatic - they will play the record from rest to record end with no need to touch the tonearm. Many also have removable cartridge mounts for switching cartridges. I have a Dual 1219 that I bought from Fix-My-Dual tha to use alongside my Prime and SL1200 that I like quite a bit.
Quality fully automatic turntable with a removable headshell. Does this exist?
Unless I ban my kids from touching the stereo, which I don't want to do, I think I need an automatic TT. Is there a hifi grade TT out there that is fully automatic AND has a tone arm with an interchangeable headshell? I want to be able to switch easily between a mono and a stereo cartridge.

If you are looking for a stacker you will have to find an old Dual in decent shape. No removable head shell though. I do not recall any fully automatic table with a removable head shell. Frankly, I would use my technique. There is only one person who can go within three feet of my turntable, me. Everyone else is limited to digital. |
