I'm not sure if this is breaking forum rules or not but here it goes.
The owner of our company has always been a bit turntable mad and has amassed a large collection (over 150) of turntables over the years. The turntables range from mass market, but important to represent in a collection i.e. Dual CS505 to the obscure, rare and exotic i.e. Alphason Symphony, Ariston RD90, Impulse Mosquito, Michell Prisma Twin, Micro Seiki RX1500, Technics SP10 Obsidian Plinth, Townsend Rock REF, Transcriptor Round and a Trio LO7D are a few examples.
Rather than squeezing them all into his house we're thinking of opening a turntable museum. The decks would all be displayed in a dedicated room which would be free for people to come and browse around and have a chat about the decks. We are planning to have a different turntable playing each week, perhaps with a contemporary system that visitors can play there own records on or choose from one of the thousands of records he also has.
Is this someting you would be interested in visiting? and if so, are there any turntables in particular that you think we should have in the collection
I must stress that there is no entrance fee, you're free to look and leave and you won't be pressured into buying anything and none of the turntables or records are for sale. We will run it purely as a museum.
Any comments are greatly appriciated.
