I have both of these tables. Th Marantz is currently up and going and has an AT cartridge of some sort. I think it sounds pretty good. I also have a Dual 606 that would need to go in for servicing that I picked up for fairly cheap....which one would be the keeper in your opinion? Set up is a Marantz 2245 with Klipsch Heresy III's Thanks for the info as always. Anyone hate either of these tables?
