ideas.... Suggestions


I'm looking for advice on a fully automated TurnTable.  I have a few of the older ones
like a Garrard Zero 100, but they are for looks, I don't use them, but do maintain them.
Just like everything, my Zero 100 collection is just that a collection. Sound wise they
are pretty bad. Actually real bad... Silk purse, sow's ear, thing...

I was looking at Thoren TD240 II.  This is for a person with great hearing but very
limited mobility and mostly her left side.  We both laugh it's a little rough on the vinyl
every now and then.. This will make it easier, but they insist on quality. 

MX110Z
MC240
Thoren Supper 160 (I think) and a Shure MM cart. 
She uses a Denon 103 MC cart too.
MR-7 speakers

Maybe not the most up to date, but it sure sounds good.  

Any other ideas on Fully automated Turntables...

I forgot one thing. She has a LOT of 78 mono. She get in one of those Big Band, Jazz, moods and it may go on for a couple of months.

She has a Thoren TD124, not a TD 160. It's all set up. Just can’t do the head shell swap and stuff needed to do both mono and stereo. She is a one handed wonder, though.. She tore up a pretty spendy MM shure cart.
Going auto, no changing her mind, now.. 

Says she’ll teach the dog to swap the carts.. Hamster, rabbit, whatever works.. :-)
