Micro Seiki DD-33/Denon DL-300
Just picked this one up after enjoying a a DD-20 for the last year. The DD-33 needs to be properly cleaned but it's all there and sounding great.

Just finished my AR XA
It took over a year and a half, but my AR XA is finally finished. Running a Shure V15 IV right now, but have a Grado Red and a Denon DL-110 to try as well.
This table has all the great mods from Marcmorin and a beautiful walnut base from AVFan.

That is one gorgeous XA -- I can only hope to get mine half that nice!

Plans changed. The mentioned GE arm went to another deck, and this one became my daily driver stereo deck.

That's a Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum Integrated and a Technics SL-1600 MK2 (also fully refurbed.)
I intentionally kept the XA as simple and clean as possible as a contrast to the Technics table.

Thanks! I can only take credit for the top plate. I stripped it down to bare metal, coated the underneath with an acoustical dampening material, and then put five coats of color with a rattle can and careful wet sanding. Followed that up with two coats of clear lacquer. Lots of elbow grease, but it looks pretty good.
AVFan did that beautifully figured walnut base. I also had the outer platter edge polished by a local metal polishing shop. The real beauty is in the function and I have marcmorin to thank for that.
