I've owned 4 different B&O's over the past 10 years having been lured by the exquisite design of them. Each one had mechanical issues including the one I own now, Remember these are between 30-40 years old, open one up,their mechanics are incredibly convoluted,complicated.
The only reason I took a chance on each was the reasonable cost,not sound quality. They were purchased as 2nd or 3rd backups, and that is how they sounded to me. Soundsmith is presently hand making cartridges for the B&O, that will most likely improve their sound. I sold one that I purchased, and returned 2 to the persons I purchased them from. One is sitting upstairs with a possible power source issue,it looks real good sitting there ,though! I would go with another table ,my main is a Nottingham with a Rega RB900 with upgraded wiring and Clearaudio Maestro, no comparison!! Buy one for fun not consistently good sound! Enjoy,Chet
