    I appreciate you're probably joking, but can we not do this?

    I suspect we WILL have forum members who have a Crosley or similar, for any number of reasons, and they don't need to be TT-shamed.

    This one has served me well for 56 years. :winkgrin:

    But in between, I use this VPI Classic with Audio Note IQ3 cart. Extremely happy with the combo!

    I got this Dual 606 in 1980 or 1981. It still works like a charm and until I get a fully dedicated music room, or until it breaks, it will be my main TT. He’s like an old friend.

    A little Marquee Moon on my humble VPI Traveler. Original 77 pressing. It's a pretty basic table, but the Dynavector 20x2L really makes it shine.

    Yes, I'm very happy with this setup. The internal phono stage sounds fine to me.

    That top pic is just awesome, love the now/then thing (your "second" table/cart combo isn't too shabby, either ;)).

    You win!! Awesome pics on top there! My older siblings had Christmas stockings like that too.

    Too convoluted for me to upload pics on this site and my turntable is an entry AT60 right now.. as I got back into records these last couple years and will upgrade soon I hope. The rest of the system is much nicer. Eventually I’ll fill in the required set up info for this site.

    I recently bought this turntable and wasn't expecting much for the price.
    Totally amazed & astonished by the way it sounds! Terrific purchase without breaking the bank... :love:

    Most amazing thing about this thread ? How many dream turntables pop up. Serious hardware.

    I just reignited my vinyl journey and am spinning more records than ever before. I am enjoying the hell out of this table. I think it’s good enough to warrant the Roadrunner tach and when the time comes a better cartridge

    I think the most valuable thing in your photos is the aluminum Christmas tree. I wish I'd kept ours.

    I hate to derail the thread, so Gorts, feel free to delete if necessary, but this is the full photo from 1966 with my brother in it and the same exact tree.

    Nothing fancy, but it's built like a tank and has been playing rekkids for decades.

    My backup sitting in the closet is a Technics SL-D202 that is also about 40 years old and built like a tank. I love the old vintage equipment. It seems to last forever.

    I only have one turntable these days: a plain ordinary Pro-Ject Debut Recordmaster II. The only change I've made since purchasing it last year is upgrading the Ortofon stylus from OM5E to 2M Blue. Sounds pretty great to me.

    Fantastic table! I still have one in my parent's home which I get to use when I visit. I could not see if you still use the original Ortofon 2M red cartridge, but if you ever decide to make any upgrades, the Denon DL-110 is a great fit for that table.

    My Technics SL-1301 sitting atop my Pioneer SX-626 receiver. I scored it off Craigslist for free about 15 years ago. I like the 1301 because it's the original non-MK2 design but with quartz lock.
