Given the choice of a nice D6 or a beat 1200, I'd suggest the D6 for your friedn's brother. It is built well, sounds good and the auto shut-off is a nice feature.
Be aware of two things: the D6 has no VTA adjustment and if memory serves, the cueing is not damped. I looked at the manual on Vinyl Engine to check and it seems to bear this out, but it is a bit ambiguous.
A great starter table. Personally, I prefer the 1200, but finding a nice one is likely to cost twice as much and your friend's brother will likely be delighted with the D6.
Good luck !
Dean.

reelsmith's axiom: Its going to be used equipment when I sell it, so it may as well be used equipment when I buy it.
