Absolute Monster SAM Turntable

I have one with an Audiomods arm and a custom 12v PS for the motor. It's a hell of a table that replaced a VPI Classic. Haters gonna hate I guess ....

Besides the platter, what ELSE is made from MDF?  For the bucks, I could not get my mind around the idea of an MDF platter.  But that certainly is not to say it cannot sound good. 

Im interested in purchasing one as well but would like to run different Tonearms in the future. Any advice on the difficulty and where to get the arm boards? 

Fancy looks and cheap price. As for extra tonearms, I can recommend acoustand tonearm pods that can be made to measure either for sitting on a turntable or on your turntable stand. They are very heavy and come with spikes, so solidity is a given. I've compared them with the built-in mount of my SME tables, and it has been easy to say a better cartridge on an Acoustand pod sounds better.

But, back to business. I'd advise against buying something that looks wonderful when it is cheap. There will be a reason. Buying decisions should be based on what sounds best to you, not on what looks good.
