What's been your turntable ownership over the years?

Please.  Neither you nor I have been a member of this forum long enough to be telling other people what they can or cannot discuss.  

Yes, the formats are different.  My point was that the turntable/LP is more about "the experience:" grabbing an album, doing the sleeve thing, loading it on, cueing up, listening...watching it go round and round, listening to the "groove noise," drooling over the beautiful complexity (or simplicity) of your table, flipping after five tracks and doing it all over again.  There is none of that in digital playback.  But, if vinyl takes you to Nirvana, I get it.  But a well produced CD will always have better fidelity (freq response and dynamic range) that any LP no matter how well produced.

Portable RCA 45 rpm changer, amp speaker     Magnavox suitcase portable stereo.                 Philips 212 with Shure M91 ED.                           KENWOOD KD500 with SME/ShureV-15, currently with JH Formula 4 & Grace F-9E.         Ariston, like the Linn copy, sold w/SME/V15.     Ariston RD40 Signet XK50 with two "wands": Supex 900 Mark IV and Yamaha MC 9 to use while Supex was being "retipped". I still use the Ariston and Kenwood for my two main stereo systems.

Nothing at the moment, but I have had:

Philips Hifi International 212 with various cartridges. A bass-less wonder with good isolation.

Ariston RD-40 with SME 3009 Series II tonearm and various cartridges.
Same Ariston with Infinity Black Widow tonearm and various cartridges.
The Ariston was quite well isolated but bounced the whole time and was a complete pain to setup. It also suffered from significant rumble.

Rega Planar 2 - the early one after the switch to a straight arm. Good bass, not the best tracker in the world and zero isolation.

The best tracking cartridge I ever used was an Audio Technica AT150MLX (or it may have been its predecessor, it was a while ago) and the other one I really liked for its sound quality was an Ortofon MC20.

I kind of gave up on turntables when I discovered my dad's Yamaha PL200 sounded better than anything I had with the Ortofon MC20 mounted.

Recently I tried a Musical Fidelity Roundtable with the default AT 95E cartridge and also with a Denon DL-110 mounted. Awful floppy arm bearings, lots of rumble, no motor isolation. It went back. It did serve to make me a bit happier with digital playback though :) Yes, I know it was cheap... 

Dual 1219 in the 70's with a Shure V15 mk3 ...   went to CD about 1980? and never looked back.
