I doubt anyone is "having a laugh".
They just don't know.
Dansettes ETC with 1 valve amps needing very high output cartridges.
Trying to reduce the tracking weight ETC
Hum which may be normal.
All on, Items which were always crap but even we did not know at the time.
They may well be better off with crossley and its like which do no more harm than the old players
It is not about hi fi or even what many of us ended up with which was what we could afford in the way of medium priced separates of a very pleasing sound quality.
