How many turntables have you owned?


My analog journey started in the 70's- I'm on my 6th turntable, which I have owned since 1998. I think it's my final turntable!

128x128zavato

If I recall correctly, I’ve had the following;

BIC 980

AR ES-1

Mapenoll (can’t recall the model, perhaps a defensive mechanism-it was hell.

Well Tempered Record Player

VPI HW-19 with Graham 1.5t tonearm

Basis Debut/Vector III arm with vacuum clamp and motor controller

Maybe close to 20. Among them, about 10 were cheap Japanese turntables. 

Now, 5 working tables: Garrard 309 with two Ortofon arms, Denon DP80, Denon DP75 with two Denon arms, Clearaudio Bluemotion, and Technics Linear tracking turntable.

Somewhere between five and ten. I'm not quite sure. Am I counting the turntables my sister had when we were kids? Am I properly keeping track of my wife's several turntables (including a Linn) through the years? Ah'm gettin' dizzy...
