I don’t care about modern turntables at all, 99% of them are so ugly that i don’t want to use them even for free, also i would like to avoid belt drive and idler drive as well. The prices for modern turntables are insane, except for the new Technics. All i need is direct drive like Luxman PD-444 and Victor TT-101. There are many more things to improve, but those turntables are so good that i don’t even what to think about replacement.
Yesterday i’ve watched this video from Capital Audiofest and recognized that people at Zu Audio also uses Luxman PD-444 with low power First Watt SIT amps and their super high sensitive Druid mk6 speakers with full range drivers. I believe these guys could use any modern turntable, but they are uzing the Luxman PD-444.
I have no idea why do we need those $30k modern belt drive turntables if we have DD like Luxman for under $3k designed for two tonearms?
