A good sounding turntable is a simple device. Roy Gandy from Rega Research invented the simplest, best device 30+ years ago & everyone has been copying him since. As an aside, he is a nice guy & a long time Porsche owner. Also a gun guy – I went skeet-shooting with him in 1982 (and he beat me by one clay – I only missed one vertical throw). I made a lot of 80s money selling Rega.
Belt drive. Damped platter with mass. Reliable bearing. Rigid tonearm. Pro-Ject, Roy Hall, the U Turn above . . . are all copies of the original Rega design.
So buy a Rega if budget allows or one of the imitators if not.
