Hogwash The big Japanese manufacturers were happy to sell turntable until the level of sales fell way off that they were no longer profitable. It was good Ol' Ivor and his allies in the British magazines who make the crazy claims about the deficiencies of Direct Drive turntables. The British press was eager to help the native manufacturers even if the product wasn't as good as imported products. That kind of thought moved into the US audio press with the importation of people like Collums, Kessler and their ilk. All you have to do is read TAS or Stereophile from that era and you can start to see the change take place.
Of course the British Press has no problem with imports now that so much of the local manufacturers have been bought by the Chinese. They ignore the fact that their local equipment is now made in China and the names are just names with nothing of substance behind them.
When they discover the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to discover they are not it. ~ Bernard Bailey
