Turntable? Arm or cartridge?

Seriously. Can't tell you how refreshing it is for someone to just come right out and admit up front this is all bull. So many of these questions, its obvious they're pure fantasy, but the OP is pretending, and so everyone pretends along. Like little girls playing tea, we hold the cups with our little fingers sticking out, so nice and proper. Oh yes its crucially important in the vinyl replay chain hierarchy harrumph harrumph. 

Banter. Gotta love it. There comes a point no where budgets are prioritized. Brother. Budgets are always prioritized. Nobody ever does it any other way. Heck even in the banter thread by the banter thread leader, or is it blather? Whatever. The what if money were no object thread. Even there people can't help but pretend they have a budget. 

Point of order: Banter. Blather. What's the difference?

This is just banter so I look forward to your views

Banter, eh? Motor, platter, arm and bearing are all vastly overrated. Its all cartridge. Spin the record on a pencil with one hand hold the cart in the other and see.
