You probably quoted the wrong links. Always use links ending on .jpg and paste that link using the photo icon in the reply window here.
Or use the BB code text that they provide. Just click on the "embed codes" tab then copy and paste the BBCode you want. If you remove the URL part it will just be the picture inside the IMG tags.
Forum member bought it from an estate sale. I purchased it from him. KAB fluid damper installed by me.
What I like most from some SA DD decks is that you don't have to touch anything, just push buttons for the most part. Much different that the manual decks with to cuing functions, as long as they work as there suppose to.
Not sure what you mean by "SA". All my turntables are Japan made Direct Drive Fully Auto tables from the 80s. My Realistic needs a tune up so I use it full manual, but I love my fully auto P-mount linear trackers. Press a button and it plays; returns the tonearm when it's done. LOVE that, especially in the living room with my toddler hanging around. My SL-J33 even has track programmability!
My new AN TT2 arrived yesterday. I ordered it in July so I was desperate to listen to my LPs. I think it’s too early to make insightful comments, however I’m very happy with the music its making.
This is NOT my turntable; it belongs to a friend here in Antalya (I can't give any stats). He recently built the plywood cases. I was especially impressed with the vibration isolation pedestals that he designed and had custom-machined in stainless steel. Very elegant:

Yeah with their new range there is not a lot of reason for aftermarket upgrades, unless one is keeping the table one already has of course. Regardless, I bet your souped up P3 w/Exact sounds pretty awesome.

That's not how Rega owners do it though, is it? I speak from experience....joyful modding experience...
Plus one here...modded mine while moving up the ladder. Started with an RP1 (to which I added Groovetracer sub & platter, along with a 2M Bronze cart) before moving on to RP6 tables bought on clearance (both also upgraded and both still in use) and finally to an RP10 (stock obviously, and very much in use). I moved the Groovetracer parts from the RP1 on to one of the RP6s, so no big loss. And had a lot of fun along the way!
I've always had a soft spot for the 25, I can only imagine how good it sounds with the upgrades, I was shocked at the improvement the 24V motor made to an old Planar 3 and the 25 is a much better starting point.
