Hi Friend,
Recently been bitten by the turntable bug. Went to a few shops last week to see my options. Need a good standard used turntable for the time being atleast for a year or so after which I plan to upgrade depending on Vit M.
I did find a few good specimens but probably priced a little high.
a) Toshiba SR3639 - 2 speed plasticky stuff - Rs.4.8K
b) Lenco L3807 - Good solid build - direct drive quartz - clone of ATLP120 (without USB) - Rs.22K
c) Technics J2 - Linear tracking - Rs.6.5K
d) Murphy turntable - basic 4 speed - Rs.1.8K
Kindly let me know which would you suggest. My budget is ~Rs.10K but can go over if its a really good machine.
When I was growing up.. my family had a Garrard Lab Series Type A, Ahuja Amplifier and hand made speaker setup (Bolton drivers). The Ahuja is gone, the speakers are technically OK, need new housing and the Garrard needs some repair. Still need to trace the box containing all the records. Second priority this year is to get the Garrard and speakers up and running this year.
