Best turntable for easy setup and no maintenence?

another would be a Scheu Cello with rb250 mounted; about a grand landed from Germany. Uses same bearing as the more expensive Premier Mk II (Absolute Sound recommended component a few years back). Very nice unit with a moderate sized footprint.

audio note TT1 and audio note arm 2 with an audio note cartridge or dynavector....all work together very well. The table is designed with the rb250 and 300 in mind so the suspension is optimized for the rega arms as is the armboard. If you buy it new the dealer will set it up for you so all you have to do when you get it home is remove the shipping screw, plug it in, and enjoy. You never need to adjust it unless you change to a different cartridge. Very nice sounding table and quite a good value in that price range.

Scheu Cello with rb250 arm for less than a grand landed from Germany. Uses same bearing as their much more expensive 80mm platter Premier model. Excellent motor and good cosmetics. this is not a kit as is the following table, though.

Bix turntable appears a good value, too.

or a rega p25
