Top ten DD turntables of all time?

Did anybody mention a Luxman PD-121. I had one, was really beautiful.

I have the Micro Seiki DQX 1000.
It sound excellent to me but in respect of what TWL said above - yes there are those although very small waves visible in the spindle rotation.
But I don't know what had happened as I had bought it second hand.
If it had been shipped or just carried with the platter left on that might had caused it.
It could be that there was no accident.
Anyway want to install a new motor .
If anybody can provide information that would be much appreciated.
Thank you

...above I miss the Kenwood KD-750. To me one of the best, even with the standard tone arm and e.g. and AT-OC 9. I compared it to quite a number of top DD turntables by Nakamichi, Denon, Technics a.s.o., as well as to top range BD tables by Transrotor and Clearaudio. Some of them in one or another aspect better, but still, the best overall performance was provided by the KD-750, even if it was a real bargain compared to the others mentioned. Just good engineering.

I also own a Micro DDX1000 with SME3012, a little more difficult in handling / adjusting, but quite rewarding. My Belt drive Acoustic Solid Small Machine, surely a good table for the money, can't really compete. Neither could my ex-players Thorens 520 and LP12. I don't miss them.

The question of how belt-drives sounded compared to direct-drives back in the day was asked. There was a discontinuity to the sound of the direct-drives, while the belt-drives ebbed and flowed like real music. The music on direct-drives seemed cut up and had the same sound-no matter what music was playing. I clearly heard this same sound on some higher-end Denons and that Nakamichi 1000(the one that centered the disc.). It was generally assumed that because the motor was directly coupled to the spindle, that there was no way around this problem with direct-drives. Now, since that time, I have become aware of the ability to hear what people are saying about something, and, yet, to listen beyond that(like cd). I still have no desire to own a direct-drive turntable, but maybe understand why the sound might not bother people. I do agree, though, that cd was considered better sound than most turntables in use at the time of its introduction. BTW, the original Walker tt was a cheap turntable when it was introduced.
