I have gone insane, need help

I just started into vinyl this summer, and have gone completely insane with tables. Need some help and advice on thinning the herd as I am just flat running out of space. Would love to have an idea on which ones you would recommend keeping and why.

Here is the list:

Linn Lingo LP 12 cirkus model with trapmolinn and Ekos arm

Yamaha PF-800, actually have two of them

Yamaha PX-3

Thorens TD 124, thing is new in box with wood grado arm

Thorens TD 160 super, completely redone by tubeaudioproducts

Thorens TD 165 kinda beat

Thorens TD 165 with arm lift, really great shape

Dual 1229 nearly mint, it was another NOS

Technics SL 1200 Mk 1

couple other little toyish ones not worth saying

These are all the ones I currently possess

At the risk of stating the obvious, I would keep the one(s) that you like the best.

Buddy,

Forget the turntables and take the Gixxer for a long ride.

And keep the Linn, dump the others.

If they were mine I would keep the Linn and 124 and sell the rest.

The first step is admitting you have a problem......

OK, so now on to step two: What to do about it?

I would recommend selling the ones that will net the most return on your "investment" without deminishing your listening pleasure. In other words, sell the most expensive ones that you don't think are the best.....

Enjoy,

TIC

it depends on what music you listen to.if you listen to classical or jazz from the 50s and 60s,then keep the thorens 124,buy a decent 12" tonearm, with mono and stereo cartridges and seel the rest ,its all crap,(including the linn!).
