Thirty five years of turntables and that is the best you could come up with? There is virtually nothing on that list that really pushed the envelope in its time let alone now, in retrospect.
I know that you are selecting from your own archives and I can understand why rare imported exotica such as EMT, Goldmund, TNT, VPI and the rest are omitted but seriously, no Xerxes, Pink Triangle, Voyd, Nottingham Analogue, SME, Oracle......*unknw*
If you are going to invoke National Record Store Day with an artlcle like this, at least get someone who actually lived through and understands the era to write it. This suggests that the office junior was given friday afternoon to knock something together and told to have it finished before he could go home.
Quite agree.............. Oh, and you forgot to mention the Townsend Rock
Good morning Dave..
Absolutely, good call.....*good*
Probably a few others too, so many really fine players to choose from, it makes me wonder what so many of todays vinyl enthusiasts would do if they heard such a player in a good setup, faint probably..
I know that I am a complete dynosaur, but I am a dynosaur that has been around the block a good few times and I know a good turntable setup when I hear one.
And yes, most of the players discussed routinely on this forum don't even come close.
