Technics SP10 mkII or Denon DP-80

AN660, AN640G, DN860, and MN6042 are the only proprietary ones.

There are four boards of consequence in the controller. The motor chassis board have only a few diodes and resistors on them, otherwise used for connection points, tactile switches, strobe LEDs, etc. Nearly nothing to go wrong on those and one really never touches them.

Well, I guess you and I are standing on the "electronics with ICs can be made reliable" camp?

Aside from the known issues with the MN6042 I’ve never seen the other proprietary ICs die natural deaths. I personally have no concerns with the reliability of the electronics given there are a couple ways to deal with MN6042.

SP-10MKII are differentiated as the ICs can all be replaced with currently available TTL logic with minor adjustments.
