I feel so validated when someone around here agrees with me.

You probably already understand that I threw in that contriteness to not light the fuse of any true believer who's has ridden that train all down the track.

I didn't want to try to support my opinion verses someone rabid enough to spend cubic dollars to support a fine state of the art table from about fifty years ago.

Plus, I am just here for fun, and would never want to kick sand in another's harmless enjoyment. I have publicly embarrassed myself enough so that I only go hard against the plainly stupid rip off stuff, that even I can see violates science.

Mainly I just wanted to say that I am always pleased when someone with actual experience supports my, from the sideline, opinions.

There was a time when owning an LP12 impossible for me, now it is only an impossibility because of logic, thank goodness.

By coincidence, I just recently watched a Youtube posting by a mechanic who recounted a couple of stories where people kept pouring money into fixing a car , which eventually ended in disaster .

I don't think upgrading a turntable has ever ruined a person's life, but the common thread of not being able, or wanting to, step back and consider the path seems the same.
