Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?


I have just acquired a 32 year old JVC/Victor TT-101 DD turntable after having its lesser brother, the TT-81 for the last year.
TT-101
This is one of the great DD designs made at a time when the giant Japanese electronics companies like Technics, Denon, JVC/Victor and Pioneer could pour millions of dollars into 'flagship' models to 'enhance' their lower range models which often sold in the millions.
Because of their complexity however.......if they malfunction.....parts are 'unobtanium'....and they often cannot be repaired.

Questions that could easily be answered on a tailor-made PBN turntable thread.
I don't want to report Peter. I just want to see the thread revert to the topic. The on-going advertising of PBN turntable restorations, with little or no insight as to the specifics of the work done, can be continued elsewhere.
It would be relevant to this thread if the faults found and the remedies applied to the eventual PBN turntables was being discussed, but they are not.
It would be interesting to open a specific thread for the plinths, initially this thread was born for the Victor TT-101 and similar turntables with so much electronics inside.
