It would seem there must be a way to at least have auto lift at the end, without affecting the sound. The old AT6006(?) tonearm lift worked pretty well and I can't imagine how it could have affected the sound negatively. Can't be that hard to incorporate something like that in most turntables.
Automatic Cueing and Automatic Return
I noticed that upper end turntables don’t have auto return. I suspect that this is due to a perceived sound quality loss. Is this true? What damage is done when my thousand dollar stylus rubs against the record label if and when I doze off after drifting into musical bliss? I look forward to any and all input and/or suggestions.
Thank you.
Thank you.
