First things first, this table is FANTASTIC. I don't know about million dollar tables, but I do know that my $200 Beogram 4002 is the best table I have ever seen. Some of my favorite things about this table: The Platter and Tone arm section is suspended above the chassis floor, and shock mounted. I haven't tried it yet, but I fully believe you could hit the side of the case with a good sized hammer and it wouldn't effect playback. I rapped on the side with my fingers till they hurt, and I couldn't get ANY vibration through playback. After doing much research on the cartridge, which is a proprietary B&O design (Moving Magnetic Cross), the MM (Moving Magnet) selection on most pre-amps seems to be the best choice. The table sounds fantastic, as good as anything I've heard. I don't have any complaints about this table, but some may find the ability to change cartridges difficult if not impossible. There is a company that makes replacement carts at a cost of... $600US or so. This turntable was originally about $600 and now can be had from $200 - $400 depending on condition.
