Pioneer PL-570 Vs. Denon DP-62L opinions?

[Rex Everything]

I have the opportunity to pick up a very nice Denon DP-62L w/ straight and S arms in the original box and was wondering what the experts here thought of the table Vs. the Pioneer PL-570 that I already own.

If you've had experience with both tables please let me know your thoughts on each.

No thoughts on either or both of these tables?

Tough question, I guess.

I have never heard either unit, but their reputations say they should both be very nice TTs.

I own the lesser PL-560 and DP-37F respectively, and IMO there´s not much between them.

Well, I have owned the PL-570 and the DP-45F and while the Denon is a very nice table, the PL-570 is a significant improvement in clarity and soundstage. But the Denon "L" tables were their best and have received high acclaim, so unfortunately I can't be of help there. I've been curious about it for some time though, so if you go for it, I'd encourage you do an A/B and post the results.

I don't think I'm going to be able to resist the Denon so I'll post up my thoughts when it gets here.

One of them will most likely not stay.
