Default Re: Record Player Queries

I find the 80's Technics like QD33, DD33 to be reliable and good value. For around £60 you can get a direct drive deck, quartz locked, automatic operation, proper tonearm bearings, nice looking etc. I had budgeted £300 for a new player but instead spent £70 on an QD33 and £200 on a Jico SAS stylus for the original cartridge. Sounds lovely.
