Ask AJ if there are any upgrades and / or maintenance available for your turntable. I second all the comments made for this terrific table. Keep it.
Upgrade from Old Basis Ovation
I own a Basis Ovation turntable, which I purchased in 1990, along with a Triplanar tonearm and Van den Hul Grasshopper cartridge. I am considering whether to upgrade to a new turntable. If anyone on this board owns or owned the same turntable, and has since upgraded (whether to another Basis or to another manufacturer), I would appreciate hearing about your experience, what the new turntable does better/worse, etc.
