I remember Empire,AR and DUAL as being the most acclaimed in their time. They were made by the bigger mass market makers.

Then the personal pursuits of smaller Cos. came around. There is a big list.

I'd like to include the Mapleknoll Airiadne Signature to Albert Porter's list.

Kind regards,

elizabeth...The for sale Sony PSX800 turntable (which you thought was worth $100) was bid up to $315, but the seller's reserve price was not met. Does this make the PSX800 three times better?

No, it's 3.15 times better. :^0
What I wrote was only for the common enjoyment. It has no meaning besides the statistics in the Orion bluebook for 2002, and the bizarre bidding on E-bay, where every third item is an adventure into crazed bidder wars.
