I am selling my Funk Little Super Deck.

Very few hours use, barely run in and immaculate. Full warranty and all packaging. The mat is the standard Funk felt but the Achromat may be added as an extra. The arm is brand new, not used and the latest up to date version.

I would like £850 + carriage if required.

As new turntable with the latest, uprated FX tonearm at a saving of £250.

Come on lads, before someone on PFM gets it.

It’s Like Buying a Pickup Arm and Getting a Free Turntable.

Putting the Funk Firm LSD through its paces with a handful of cartridges proves that this table is a steal for $2,000. When compared to equally priced competitors from SME and Rega, the F5 pickup arm makes the LSD an even better bargain, with some innovative features that the competition doesn’t have. But remember, this table will need a good dealer or good skills to set up properly.

But once it was setup, I could not find fault with the LSD, no matter what kind of music I listened to. Going back to a few of the higher-dollar tables in my collection, I could see what I wasn’t getting in terms of dynamics and resolution, but the LSD combines it all so well, it won’t leave you wanting much more, no matter how good your system is.

The LSD strikes such a good equilibrium of basic, balanced aesthetics and the ability to reveal a lot of music that it may actually be a destination turntable for many analog aficionados. Those stepping up from anything in the $500-to-$1,000 range will be shocked at how much music is lurking in their record collection.

And because of this, we are happy to award it one of our Exceptional Value Awards for 2013.

I should note I have been roped-in as the worlds most cack-handed hifi tech to thoroughly refute the one criticism made of this deck, and may yet become a star of Youtube proving it. (It is piss easy to set up - but you have the benefit of knowing it will have been done by an expert in this case. ) As the review puts it - the F5 is SOOO good, it should cost £1200, and as such it's like buying a tonearm and getting a free record deck - with Vector!

And yes - Arthur is my mate, so I may be biased, but this reviewer isn't :)

It is, indeed, a wonderful turntable and I have had no problems at all in setting it up.
