[jammy395]

Yep i think it should be (by all accounts) a close call.......
Look forward to your findings.....

[Gromit]

Well when he passes it on he can leave it with me for you to collect or me to deliver when we can.

Sounds good to me

And yes, some serious mega-Jap-DD decks to drool over.

[jammy395]

Ok applemarc.....As previously stated you are indeed one lucky SOaB.............. ...................
But what ever TT exotica you may decide upon.........Once i get my second PSU for my NVA phono 2 (2013) Then my Goldring 1042 mm & Standard 1210mk5
Will be up for any bake off with ya..........Gulp...!!!.............

Cant wait for yer findings against said best TT in the world SME 30.......(according to world press it would seem).......

Ok if I can get in touch with him I will buy and compare with my SME if I like it I will then consder selling it and buy a better DD their seem to be one or two that are supposed to be the best out there

Pioneer P3a
Kenwood L-O7D
Sony PS-X9
Denon DP100

EMT 948 and 950 are fine too. Prices seem to be all over the place for EMT's. With a lot of them selling for £thousands more than 3 years ago when I bought my 950.

A few others to look out for:
Onkyo PX-100M (500,000 yen in 1981)
The Denon DP 100 was 700,000 yen in 1981 and 100M 900,000!
Yamaha GT-2000X (320,000 yen in 1985)
JVC TT-101 (150,000 yen in 1981 for this bare-bones tt)
Micro Seiki, various dd models including the AP-M1, DDX-1000
Marantz TT1000 (390,000 yen on 1981)...

Therein lies the rub though eh? Surely the best TT in the world can only be the one you love the most. I can't imagine swapping my Anni for anything else.

[Daniel Quinn]

Well said Zebbo , when i saw on the portal you had posted on here , i thought bloody hell even Zebbo's joining the direct drive mafia :D

thankfully , it was not the case

[zebbo]

No, no, I went through a lot of turntables, including idlers & DD, before becoming a Pink devotee.

[Daniel Quinn]

Well done doc , you managed to find a smily that perfeclty illustrates the smugness and joy us pink triangle owners derive from ownership. :D

you never know , the handshake may catch on as a secret ownership code similar to the alleged one the masons have .

It is listed as "Gay Fight" :? Though I understand it is not compulsory for PT owners to be gay

Do you know the story of the company and why it is called Pink Triangle
