Alright lets make this thread the home of all Turntable heads over here. Lets see how many are among us. Tell us what you got/had. And what would be your dream machine. I will begin -

Thorens TD-125
BIC 960 (undergoing repair)

This is one great turntable.
A little old now but still great.
I do need a new rubberband.
Any idea on how to get one?
The current Kenwood site is no help.
It does list a couple of parts by number but does not give the title of the part.

I did not know that people still played records.

Thorens is a nice table, for sure.....I'm just not big into setup (tracking force, weight, etc). I've got a Music Hall MMF-5, and LOVE it :)

PS- you might want to stop by my audio forums at www.audiokarma.org as well :)

there are many sites that specialize in this. Just google up or search for "turntable belts" and call them up. Usually they would atleast know where to send you. If all else fails, measure your belt carefully - diameter and thickness - and let me know. I can look up a couple of places that I ran into when trying to find a very odd size belt.

hey tim, so you own audiokarma.org ?! :thumbsup:

I've got an AR "The Turntable", aka ES-1.

It replaced a number of more expensive, but tempermental and unreliable turntables.

Call me a Philistine, but I don't see much reason to spend more than $20k on a good turntable (Clearaudio Master Reference).

I rue the day that a salesman at a high end store decided to educate my ears. I had never been able to tell why I heard smears, and always blamed the cartridge. I couldn't listen to cheap ever again.
