This is a no brainer for me. All you need is a JVC QLY5F quartz digital drive. They're commonly found. I've got several of these, in addition to having a traditional high end setup. Why several, because they're engineering marvels to those of us who've sampled them, in addition to delivering the analog goods. Best tonearm, platter, and low resonance design out of the 80's bar none. I also own a JVC QLY3 and a JVC QLY7, the latter widely known as one of JVC's best ever tables ever designed. It's not easy storing all these tables, but they're priceless works of art thus I've had to make room in my modestly sized listening room to accommodate them. These are hi grade performance players that will stand up to many a high priced table of today.
Best Fully Automatic TT
I am looking for a fully automatic TT to digitize my vinyl collection. My software will stop recording when the needle raises. So I want a TT that will auto-stop and return when the side is finished (so I can tend to my never-ending honey-do and infant without worry of "playing the lable"). Please advise, new or used is ok as long as the sonics are high grade.
