Interesting indeed. Not sure why Garrard 401s seem to fetch so much money these days. I worked in hospital radio about 30 years back, and we had three in the studio which were later replaced with Technics. When they closed the hospital, the Garrard's went in the skip.

DOH!!!

All I have left is a Pioneer PL-12D and a Technics SL-1400mkII...

I rather stupidly sold these to fund a new kitchen - even the Pioneer sounded fantastic:

The Pioneer was the dogs in serious budget systems of the late 70s wasn't it?

I've been browsing the Bay for old stuff lately. Thinking along the lines of a top notch alternative early 80's system. Something like...

Elite Rock / Pink Triangle TT
Meridian amp
Mission 770's

I remember that little lot being jaw dropping circa '83 - '84
