Right around $230 for a Dust Cover. I wouldn't go buying a new TT just for a friggin dust cover. It the grand scheme of things it's not that much and chances are your new table wouldn't be up to snuff...but you'd have a dustcover...
Check Audiogon. That's where I'll be getting mine when my Notts comes in.
Well the idea is that the dust cover would give me an excuse to upgrade
But that's not in the cards right now. I'm pretty happy with the Emotion and the Grado Sonata1, so why try and fix what isn't broken? I should just buy stock in the company that makes Swiffers.
Thanks! The one thing I don't like about most TTs out today is that they don't come with a dust cover. Dust can be a real PITA when it piles up on the platter and plinth. Any small gust of wind kicks it all up, and it ends up on the record. I've actually thought about selling this one and trying out a Rega or Pro-Ject, or even a Music Hall. I used to own the MMF-5.1 before I got this Clearaudio, and I miss the dust cover greatly. There are companies that sell custom made dust covers, but the prices last time I looked were around $300, which is absolutely asinine for a clear fiberglass dustcover. I'll get an entirely new turntable before I spend that much on a dust cover.
Yeah I have a Gingko Audio dust cover for my VPI. Yes, it was relatively expensive (although not really in the context of that turntable), but it does the job extremely well.

That's a really nice dust cover. That looks like the same kind they had for my Clearaudio 'table, can't remember the brand. But I believe it was around $300. I might just have to custom make one myself.
Redcar, the one you showed from Audio Advisor looks decent too, but I'm also a bit skeptical like Skylab. But hey, it couldn't be any worse than *not* having any dust cover at all, that's for sure.
not exactly a high class solution, but i saw a turntable in a thrift store for $5 the other day, it looked seriously beat up and crappy...but it did have a dust cover that could be ripped off and placed on a different turntable
I was curious about the table so googled it. Didn't realize it was released in 1989; that's pretty amazing. It looks way ahead of its time. I've been pretty happy with my Clearaudio setup (had this table since early 2009), but there are just so many darn tables, arms, and carts out there to try. Can't help but always be curious.
