why not just get another SL-QD35?
Good question! I guess some mixture of, they're thirty years old and P-mount cartridges may not always be available to hand, and it seeming somehow a falsification to get an exact duplicate of this thing that was a family item. But that's kinda silly cause it WAS the right turntable for me for so long. Seems like they can be had for not too much dough, either!
The 1200s are gorgeous, I'll give you that. And the used prices don't seem bonkers (though the ones being manufactured and sold now, holy shit). I have been envious of people with a super clean pushbutton start-stop, which the QD35 did not have. HmmmmmmmMMMMM!
