No!
If you have no sense of history, don't refer to it.
The SOTA Japanese direct drive tables of the 70's sold at prices that in today's dollars would be in the $30-$40,000 range.
If you are referring to the late, un-lamented Technics SL-1200 series...It was a mid-fi mass market product then and remains so except in the minds of those wishing otherwise.
