How many turntables have you owned?


My analog journey started in the 70's- I'm on my 6th turntable, which I have owned since 1998. I think it's my final turntable!

128x128zavato

13 (if I recall correctly). Some not worth mentioning, some good:

  • Denon DP45F
  • AR-ES 1 w/Premier MMT arm
  • AT-LP120XUSB (tweaked)
  • Thorens TD-124Mk1 (refurbished)
  • Technics SL-1500 Mk1
  • Dual 1215
  • Hitachi HT60
  • Scott PS-67
  • Pioneer PL-4
  • Crosley C-200

 

One. It was a Beogram 1700 with the low mass tonearm. It made me hate turntables. God bless the CD! 😁

Ok I fibbed, I have a collection of Zero 100s. They work perfect, they sound like Zero 100s too. That is one bad sounding TT. In custom plinths though. :-) I'm not kidding I bought one for 15.00 it had a MC Grado cart that was worth 600.00. I still have that cart. I have a TD224 that I had working perfect too. Looked new.. I like the weird ones.

TD124 & SME 12" #1

TD2030 & SME IV #2..

TD121-124s and Russco are a ton of fun.. at least a couple dozen.

HUGE! I made that plinth out of 1" red oak stair flats. 35.00 usd. I'm frugal. I paid 400.00 for 5 Russco. This is one of that 5. FM station pulls in the Bakersfield area in the late 90s

@oldhvymec ,

 

Even though Grado invented the moving coil cartridge, they don’t make any.
