Ok guys


My question is this, nothing major, more of a curiosity. When playing an album does it make a difference if you leave the dust cover up or down? Probably stupid  question but hey there are lots of opinions out there

thanks for everyone’s input I didn’t intend this to be a question of how much everyone spent on their turntable or entire system, could I spend more on mine yes but when I pulled my 80’s Onkyo turntable out of the garage and my boxes of albums out that I never thought would be cool again too it brought me back and I liked what I heard, I’ve always been in to audio equipment and good sound, so I don’t have a 6 figure system and that’s ok again, could I afford it, yes but I choose to spend my money on my car and my house. Thanks again for your responses
The presence of a couple of small nocturnal predators necessitates the use of a dust cover.  A rotating platter would be an attractive nuisance for the beasts.  No point in tempting the devil.
