So many new TT's at lower price, still better off buying used?


Under $1500, you will find TT's from all the big manufacturers. The new Technics and Pioneer decks get good reviews for home audio. However, $1500 gets you a little higher end used TT. TT's are very mechanical, so I'm a little hesitant due to possible wear and tear (I know belts are a plenty to replace). 

I'm talking about used TT's themselves with no cartridge. 

The Technics 1210 GR looks really tempting


Thoughts or opinions?

I own a  Technics SL1200G TT and I absolutely love it.  The SL1210GR will give you 90% of the SL1200G.  I believe you will love it as well.  The music really flows and you can really get drawn into the music.  This is my fourth turntable and this one is the keeper.  The best part is, there is really no fiddling with the turntables.  Once you set it, you just can play your vinyl.
