Oh yeah that table is beautiful.


Thanks.

I got my copy of TNT inj St. Louis last summer on my way to the Ralph family reunion. I think I paid fifteen bucks for it. No Swedish article, though--just a fantastic record in its original form.

There is a Luxman PD-264 on my local Craigslist for $125 (with an Audio Technica cartridge).

Would this be a worth while replacement from my kinda crappy Stanton STR8-20 I've been using for the last three years?


That's a fairly good price for the Luxman, which by all accounts are nice tables for what they offer. It's not going to be the end all but better than what you have, probably by a mile.

Here's a review of the 284 which is very similar:

Which AT is on it?

that looks ace.
Record store in athens has one for sale for $450. Seems steep, especially since it's been sitting there for months.


That's a really good price for that table, provided that it is in top notch condition, which these tables rarely are unless they have been refurbished and gone over by someone knowledgeable.

Waiting to hear back about the cartridge.

Also, the tone arm holder is missing. I forgot to mention that in my original post.
