How many turntables do you have? Seems I have 13; 4 acoustic & 9 electric machines. Way too many!

I only have one turntable.

 

At work:
Audio Technica AT-LP 120
Vestax BDT-2000 3-speed
Linn Axis

At home:
Music Hall MMF 7
Victrola 78rpm windup

The damaged AT was given to me last year. Didn't take much to get it up and running like new. The Vestax I use for occasional needledrops, including 78s and the Linn is used in my office when I'm in there.

 

Four.

That includes the one I use for the "Now Playing on Vinyl" money shots.

I have 2 : a Pro-Ject Debut and an early 80s Technics (an SL-Q2) that my dad gifted me after he did an upgrade.

I like the Pro-Ject but I'm seriously considering going back to the Technics. It's not the highest-level TT but it is good.

 

Embarrassed to say I don't remember! I'll have to check!!!

The Technics is an SL-Q2 but I'll need to check the cartridge.

One! A 1980's Revolver - made in Warrington - and happy with it, based on budget (would love to know what more money would get me in sound quality, but it'd still be MY vinyl being played on it)

 

I went to 11:

Realistic LAB-65 The first turntable I ever bought and I still have it.
VPI Scout/Classic SE, currently in use.
Systemdek III
Thorens TD 166

Thrift shop finds I couldn't resist because they were cheap:
Project/One DR 331
Garrard RC 88
Philips 437
Sansui SR-232
General Electric P380C
RCA-Victor R-93-B
Sonora RWFU-238

 

Zero. My parents gave away my Kenwood 70s stereo system when I left for college. To be fair, though, it did belong to them originally.

 

two!!!!!

1) GLI pro direct drive w/ shure cart

2) "marconi classics" (home shopping network style) old fashioned looking radio style player.....(for 78's)

 

Work: Technics SL-QD3 w/ AT 311EP
Home: Rega P3 w/ Nag MP110
Spare/needs some work: Philips 312 Electronic w/ AT3000PS

Also: Curtis Mathes console w/ BSR turntable (anyone in the New Orleans area want it?)
Motorola Console w/ turntable (came with the house we just bought)

 

Upstairs- Pro-Ject RPM 3 Carbon with Sumiko Blue Point No. 2
Downstairs- Acoustic Research ARXA with Rega RB-250 tonearm and Shure M91ED

 

I have (6)

Rotel RP 3000 Shure RS-25
Pioneer PL 550 Audio Technica AT12s
Sansui SR 717 with Grado blue
1956 RCA New Orthophonic 6-HF-5 with RP 197 with Astatic ceramic cartridge
1957 RCA New Orthophonic RP 205 fitted with a Stanton 400V magnetic
ION ITTUSB for analog to digital conversion.

 

Three:
Thorens TD145/AT440mla in the man cave
Technics SL-QD22/AT3482p in the living room for background music
Technics SL-2000 I'm giving my brother in law to get him started

 

Four:
Studio: Rega RP6 with groovetracer upgrades (Reference Subplatter, GT Delrin Platter, Rega Tungsten counterweight, Rega White Belt) - Ortofon 2M Black (with Bronze styli for older pressings)
Rega P1 - Ortofon 2M Blue
Elac Miracord 50 H II - dedicated for 78s - Shure M78S) (on encouragement from the host himself!)
Bedroom: Pioneer PL400 (my late sister's table) - Shure V15 Type IV, Ortofon 2M red

I do love tables but don't have the room for them. ONE day I will also have some acoustic machines too. Same problem: no space

Have always wanted to try a VPI table and wonder how people around here feel about the Prime?

 

No turntable. Nevermore.

 

One is all I'll ever need. I mostly listen to CDs.

 

Only my sole Clearaudio Concept with its namesake MM cart.

And its going to be my sole TT for a long time lol (I hope!)

 

I have six.

Technics SL1200-MK2 fit with a Shure V15 Type V bought in the late 2000's right before Technics stopped making them.
A vintage, recently restored Dual 1229 fit with a Shure M97xE. If I want to play 78s on this table, I swap the cart out for the Shure N78S. (Yes, I like Shure.)
Two crank Victrolas - one is a lidless table top model with the internal horn (VV-IV) and a classic upright (VV-XIV) with record storage in the bottom of the cabinet. Both work extremely well, restored a few years ago.
A late 50's Webcor mono which doesn't work so well, the rubber wheel that drives the table is really hard and the speed is very inconsistent. The tube amp sounds great, though. The changing mechanism is totally shot, even after a trip to the shop.
A bakelite RCA Victor 45 player that doesn't work at all. It used to work, but now it just hums loudly and starts to smell like it's burning after being plugged in for ten minutes.

 

I have 6.

My main listening turntable is a Technics SL-1650, in my avatar with an Ortofon Rondo Red Cart
My backup turntable is a Technics SL-3350...its sitting downstairs not connected to anything.

I have two pairs of Technics 1200s for practicing DJing. I dont need two, but I won one set in a contest, and I couldnt bring myself to get rid of the set I bought before that. Good thing I didnt.

 

If you have room for them then what better to have than turntables? I currently own 4 but only use two.

I use a Technics SL-2000 and the Dansette Major Deluxe pictured in my avatar.

The ones I'm not currently using are a JVC jl-A20 and a Garrard AP76.

I've never been able to afford a real top notch turntable but I really like what I'm using.

 

Well, Clearaudio is just around my corner.... play your 78's on this turntable....
