How often do you upgrade your turntable?


And how do you know that it is time to do it? I mean table itself, not arm or cartridge, though this might of course follow.

its like anything else...when your wallet is too thick decide the best way to thin it.
Upgrading my turntable is (or any system upgrades), is not something necessary or desired, since I completed my Garrard 401 build a year or so ago.

It's all about the music now.

If the TT is not meeting your expectation then I guess you upgrade it. If it is, is far more common to just upgrade the cartridge.

I have two tables - one is 5 years old and another 38 years old. Both have seen their fair share of cartridge upgrades and I have never given any thought to replacing them.
I changed from my AR ES-1 after 30 years. During that time I tricked it out with almost every improvement ever made for it, but as the rest of my system gradually improved over that length of time the day came when I felt like it was time to move on to something that could improve on one or two small areas and give me a bit more flexibility. It otherwise is still a pretty darn good sounding table.
