Onkyo CP-1055F-is it worth it?

[gladiator335]

I probably have a shot for Onkyo Integra CP-1055F with ADC Series III cart.
Is it worth $75?
Never had or heard Onkyo table.
What do you think? :scratch2:

I am original owner Onkyo Integra CP-1055FII direct drive and it still holds speed. Not sure what the difference between that and just the 1055F.

I did a lot of shopping before deciding it was the right one. I looked at all the usual specs wow & flutter rumble etc. and it was among the best in price class. I first had a Shure V15 type III and it now has a Type V.

It does what I expect of a turntable, but I'm not a turntable expert who has any exotic gear. I would imagine the cartridge would be the next question whether you're familiar with the ADC and whether you would need to invest in a new stylus.

1055FII
Cartridge Weight: 5-9 grams.
Signal to Noise Ratio: better than 78 dB
Wow & Flutter: less than .023% (WRMS)

I think I had that turntable before. I'm sure of the 1055 part at least. In my opinion it would be worth $75. I used several different cartridges and it peformed well. Never lost a function or lost speed. Just gave it to a young guy to further his pursuit of audio nirvana.

the 1055 is a very good table. The arm is better than most japanese arms. A solid base and non-ringing platter make it well worth $75
