Agreed on the SME 10; a fantastic table for the money and very "fuss-free".
The best "no fuss" turntable for $5K or less?
I am wanting to replace my LP12 Valhalla/Ittok with a less fussy, more "set it and forget it" deck. I live in an area of the country that is a audio wasteland. There are no dealers to set up or tune up a sensitive table like the Linn. I will spend up to Super Scoutmaster money. I am interested in all suggestions.
