    Best vintage turntable under 600 usd with auto stop?

    I recently had to sell my ps-x75 and while I am looking for a different one where I live they are really hard to find. So I was wondering what a good option would be for use in the mean time. It needs to have an auto stop and I would prefer if it was not a mechanical mechanism. Extra points if...

    Automatic turntable doesn't drop needle

    My Sony PS-LX30 doesn't lower the tonearm when I try to play records. If I turn it off and back on again then it starts working like normal. Sometimes that takes a few tries. It also stops working when I leave it on for a bit without using it. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

    SERIOUS problems with my JVC JL-F30

    This one might be hard to explain, but I'm gonna try my best. Recently, I acquired a JVC JL-F30 fully-automatic turntable.
