They are also "JVC" in the US, just not the TT101, probably because all were sold in Japan or elsewhere in the "Far East" (as we here used to call Asia). I don't know about the TT81, etc. This would fit with the story that my own dual voltage unit was made for American servicemen stationed in Japan. So they could use the TT101 in Japan and then take it home at some later date.
Which vintage direct drive?
What's your preference of vintage direct drive, a Sony TTS-8000, a JVC/Victor TT-101 or a Pioneer PL-70, or for that matter, one that is close in used price? I can't afford a Pioneer Exclusive or a Sony PX-9.
My tonearm will be a Trans-Fi Terminator.
I am half-way tempted to use the drive unit of Dual 721 because I have heard that it is really good.
Any thoughts would be appreciated
