Crummy pic but here are my three. TD145 w/DL160, TD124/Sonus 4/AT15s, TD 125/SME III/Shure V15IV/SAS

Nice setups, I have the SME III but it would be nice to trial a Sonus. Do you keep switching tables for the flavour or just run one for a period
The customer is then charged what he is likely to stand. ...
I swap all the time. Like I responded to DLS123 I have fun playing with different stuff. Beyond a certain point it all sounds great to me and unless I can switch back and forth quickly I have a hard time deciding one is better than another. To me the cartridge dominates as long as it's a decent turntable and the tonearm is reasonably matched to the cartridge. Also, as much as I like listening to music, finding stuff with issues, fixing it and making it sound good again is a big part of the fun.

Looks like that TD125 is your daily driver! Nice...
I usually have the lid down with components on top and swap turntables using a variety of pre's, amps, and speakers. The Mac stuff is nice and includes an MC2100 in the cabinet but lately it's been my MX110 feeding a pair of modified bogen monoblocks that use PP 7868's. The speakers are Altec 604E's waiting on better cab's. The MX-110 is undergoing a volume control replacement so I've been using a Kyocera A710 integrated as a pre-amp. It all sounds good to me. The TD145 with the DL-160 gets just as much time as the fancier turntables.
BTW The td124 is in really nice shape. The poor picture doesn't do it justice. I want to put a medium mass tonearm on it. I have a DL103 I'm going to send to Soundsmith for a a retip.
