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???

@dwette ok, that's reasonable. I was thinking of a single arm situation and a lever. I would not want to handle something that delicate myself. 

@billstevenson great story! I too very much enjoy when my kids play records, on my TT or theirs - which I gave them. 

We have a fully auto Technics SL-QD33 and an auto lift Denon.  So even our 8 year old is allowed to use either table without any restrictions.

@parkergetdean I got creamed by a car riding my bicycle and ended up in trauma surgery with a broken femur. The dumbass motorist paid for that turntable (and other stuff, and then some) after my lawyer got on the case. smiley

I do kinda have walls around it....a dedicated listening room, just for the hifi and record collection.
