Clearaudio Statements suck and my VPI Scout is the best

Well that just means that I like mine the best. Others seem slightly flawed to me. Being happy with what you got is a good thing.

unless they're modded.
Only Sanyo TP366 semi-auto tables are any good. No mods needed!

A friend just "rim drived" his TNT ... a factory mod ... not a third party mod ... which hints more to "upgrade" than "modified" ... which means it probably still sucks.
Well, I've not heard it yet, so perhaps ...

I'll check them, none the less.

WHAT???....no confusing opinion with fact and using nebulous, glittering superfluously absurd negative terms in describing VPI tables????
oh wait...that's johnny one-note.....sorry
:)
my first TT was a 10" plattered BSR. That sucked. I think we can all agree on that, anyway.

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.
until I get rid of them and kick myself in the ass for doing that.
One can ponder that or not, but spending that time listening to music instead would be time better spent.

I hope we can agree that any/all turntables have pros/cons and we shouldn't denigrate others' choices. Those choices may have been made for reasons of convenience, budget, experiences, availability, visual appeal....
I've heard a few versions of the Walker Proscenium (Gold) turntable, and it has always "sucked" because I was enthralled with the sound and bowled over by the engineering and construction, but knew I'd never be able to afford such a beautiful thing. When I was young, a Goldmund Reference was THE table (other than some Micro Seiki jobs) that tugged on my heartstrings.
Now? The Walker Audio table is what I just wish I could find someplace at a yardsale...
I have to say there is nothing wrong with Technics 1200 series TTs..
Nor any other TT brands.
I just got annoyed back when Technics 1200 gusher threads were flowing all the time. And ANY thread about 'what TT should I buy' got a flock of Technics owners gushing over it like it was the best thing since marmalade. It was like some gang of KAB buddies had a fanboy club for the model.
No other group seems to be around quite like the Technics fanboys were back when.
Odd isn't it?
Anyway, that is why I give Technics a hard time. And it is the ONLY reason.
Personally i have no grudge against the Technics 1200 tables.. except the tonearm is from the stone age... But not MUCH worse than the Denon arms on Denons semiauto tables.. LOL...

Nah - just kidding !

marmalade is just awful.
What did the chick say after her mother hen laid an orange?
Look at the "orange-Mama-laid" (orange marmalade).
So sorry, that was REALLY bad, but I couldn't resist.
Where else could you have handed to you such a perfect opportunity to use that line?
amen to this post. otherwise might just as well argue religion or politics. or team sports.
this thread is not a good idea.
