The "Picture of your Turntable(s)" thread

I searched the forum and didn't find any thread on this topic. My apologies to the gorts if this has been done before.

There's a lot of discussions on this forum involving vinyl playback. I thought it might be fun to 'see' what others are listening to vinyl on.

Here's mine: Basis Ovation with a Kuzma Stogi Tonearm, Benz Micro MC200 cartridge

 

that's a solid looking table.

 

It is pretty industrial looking. It weighs in around 110lbs. It sounds great and was built about 20 miles from where I live, here in NH, USA. I got this turntable from a friend who went to a Clearaudio Maximum Solution. I gush over this thing but I am experiencing vinyl like I never did with my previous turntable.

 

well, it's frikin' beautiful.

 

Here's mine:

 

Gorgeous!

 

Thanks!

That's a ClearAudio Aurum Beta S cart, and the old butcher block/superball isolation system...

 

That's sweet looking, Nat. How come mine doesn't look so nice?

Going shopping for coloured lightbulbs after work.

 

That's an LED LittleLite set on red. It's actually a pretty nice light, and it doesn't suck much juice...

 

Clearaudio Champion II with SME 309 arm and Benz Micro Glider.

 

Wow!

 

Yeah - that's beautiful too!

 

Thanks, yours is right up there too.

 

Here's a picture of one of mine ...

It's a Thorens TD125 mkII with SME 3009 II tonearm and a custom plinth:

Nice!

I love those Macs too!

 

It looks awesome with the light - put a blue light under it and it would go great with McIntosh gear at a fraction of the cost of the McIntosh turntable ... hmmm

Turntables are sexier when they got records on 'em.

 

Nice pictures everyone. I will post one of the Scoutmaster later.

 

I'm almost tempted to post a picture of my 1970's Pioneer PL-12D.

Man, I just dunno that I'll ever be able to afford fancy rigs like these...

 

Not eveyone owns a camera. Or have friends near who have.

 

Very cool setup.

 

Now that's a nice spinner.

 

Please do. The PL-12D was my first hi-fi turntable and I still have very fond memories of it. In fact, the PL-12D sounded better than the JVC and then Yamaha 'tables I replaced it with.

A turntable doesn't have to sell for big bucks to be cool.

 

Here's mine.
SME 20/2.
Thinking about the 20/12...

/K

 

Man, compared to what I'm seeing here (and on the other "full system" thread) I don't even have a turntable!
