Explore this buying guide ↗Why consider this model?
- A well-documented fit for an MM-compatible PHONO input or an added MM phono stage, with manual cueing, electronic 33/45 speed selection and three exact finish-only item records.
Tradeoffs to weigh
- No built-in phono stage or documented full automation/auto-stop; 78-RPM claims conflict across inaccessible and current sources, and the heavy body plus roughly 18.3-by-13.8-inch conservative footprint needs extra access and cover clearance.
