Turntables less than $1000 Recommendations ?

SYSTEMDEK II X $400-500 used

Ther are many chioce in the used catagory and most of them will be real winners:

Look into Rega, Sota, MMF, Clear Audio, VPI and Well Tempered.

Any table from these manufactures will give you great sound, although each does it in a slightly differant way. If you happen to run across a Well Tempered Record Player or Classic I would grab it. I think they sound swell and are a great value when coupled with the right cartridge. I happen to like mine with a Benz Glider but many enjoy theirs with a Grado woody.

harmon kardon t60c for sale right now...excellent table...suspension, auto lift at end of record, nice arm, record clamp stock, original box...I had one and sold it to a friend who is not an audiophile..he adores the thing..

sansui sr838 is also a good table with a good arm....rare.

Nottingham Analogue Studio's Horizon.

It's a bit over a grand, and that doesn't count the cart., but it's a truly wonderful 'table.

Good luck!
