I have had a few. When clean and done right, they sound very good. Almost as good as a Denon DP-75 or 80.
The Denon plinth is OK (if it is the one in the DDM link) as a CLD plinth but the footers aren't great. It is worth changing them out and using almost anything else.
As to tonearm, a Micro Seiki MA-505, Victor UA-7045, or Denon DA-307 or Denon DA-309 would do the trick and can be found cheaply. The EPA-100 is, in my opinion, better than the Victor and Denon, and possibly better than the MS arm. It is a bit more expensive. Personally I prefer the MS and Victor over the Denon but really all three are OK.
As to whether it beats a 1200, it all comes down to what you do with it. Recapped and cleaned in a decent plinth with decent tonearm (like one of the above), it should.
