Who gets to use your Turntable?


For those of you with a relatively large investment in you Turntable/Arm/Cartridge combo - Do you ever let others drop the needle???

Just me, mostly. My wife knows how to change and cue records to play, but doesn’t usually. No one else touches it.

In my main system,  no one....  in my second system anyone can play a record.  

In my second rig I have a old Garrard automatic and some vg condition LPs and a few hundred 45s.   

Me, Myself, and I in main system. Spouse on all others, Denon or Project turntables, 

Of course not. I am more concerned about my records than the needle, I have an inexpensive Goldring 1042 cartridge. Not that anyone ever asked for that, by the way.

you are all crazy. What's the big deal??? Anyone can learn in 30 seconds to handle the needle. It must be a pain to be around you...
