any good turntables with repeat function

no. don't even try if you have any valuable vinyl.

Thanks to all. I do have some valuable vinyl and thanks to your cautions, they will not be used with a repeat function. My aging knees increasingly rebel against getting up at inopportune times to lift the table arm.

I should probably start a new thread, but will ask this anyway: Are there good semi-automatic tables - those which lift the arm at the end of play? I think Thorens includes this function on some models but am not aware of other good turntable names which do.

I do use my SACD unit but also enjoy putting on some of my pre-cd vinyl.

Thanks again.

Hey Cornfed, how the heck have you been?!!! Are you going to start posting again? Good to see your moniker again!

Jdh9, I started a thread some months back asking about the best auto-lift or auto-shutoff tables available because I was thinking about upgrading from my Thorens TD-320. While the response was more limited than what I'd hoped for, the consensus was that Thorens did make the best tables with these functions. I've since asked Steve at theanalogdept.com how I could upgrade and he concurred that the Thorens' tables are at the top if you want this function. He also told me that to improve upon the sound of my TD-320 I'd need to step up to a manual table such as the VPI Scout (which would get me into serious bucks!) and that the 300 line of Thorens tables are better than the more popular 100 line. Therefore, from one lazy old man to another, I respectfully recommend the Thorens, particularly the TD-320. Also, be careful because some of the 300 models are manual only. I think that includes the TD-316 and the TD-318. Good luck, Rich

Winegasman, a very helpful response My knees and I are grateful. The old B & O 8000 I once owned would also lift at the end of play; the repeat function did not have to be used. My VPI Mark II has no such function. Thanks much.
