Hello, everyone,
I recently found this ad for a refurbished/upgraded Technics SL-1600 mkII in my area. https://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/ele/6264435283.html
I feel like the price is a little high, but I currently have a 70s Pioneer PL-570 in excellent condition--needs a good cleaning, but functions beautifully--and a Dual 1229 that is mechanically in great shape, but needs some cosmetic work, including plinth and dustcover.
The Pioneer is my main table and the Dual is collecting dust. My question is how does the SL-1600 compare against the PL-570?
The seller is open to trade + cash, as well. He offered the Technics for $400 + both tables, which is not acceptable to me.
What do you all feel is an acceptable counter offer for both tables and cash?
For what it's worth, the rest of my system is a Harman Kardon A300 tube amp and a set of KLH Model 6 speakers.
Thanks!
