Calling “a Garrard, an audiophile turntable” is the most laughable thing I’ve ever read in the Times. Yes, it’s a belt drive table (although there may have been some with idler wheels) but, audiophile, no. A starter table like a Thorens, or a Rega, might count, but a Linn or any of the true audiophile tables might start to qualify. The difference between an analog record on a great system and a. Digital mp3 on anything would make most people who love music cry at what’s missing in the digital version.
