I'm Chris.
Just the four for me in my hifi history.
Garrard GT35 when I got my first proper job and could afford a TT.
Michael Tecnodec about ten yours ago when I got back into hifi
Sold the Tecnodec about a year ago for a Technics SP10
Recently added a Garrard 401.
Think that this will be the end of my TT journey and now will start exploring for what will be suitable cartridges.
Just remembered also a Denon DP35F which I picked up at the Tunbridge Audio jumble sale two or was it three years ago. Now sat in the loft - I should probably put it up for sale as I cannot see it getting any use now.

I'm guy.
About 1974, first job so hp plan on a system - some sort of BSR autochanger (I think)
1977? (1976?) Rega 2 with S shaped arm (ADC XLM - still miss that)
Early 90's? LP 12, black with Basik+ (about a year or so before Cirkus was introduced - didn't bother with the change as I was quite happy with the pre cirkus)
Same deck but added black Ittok (every thing was black in those days - still have my Nikon FM2 camera in black )
Valhalla burned out, so replaced with Heed Orbit - wah hoo, 45rpm
Pricey at the time (I listened to a lot of decks and the only other one which appealed was the Systemdeck iix, but my wife persuaded me to buy the Linn), however brilliant value when I think of the number of years use.
I certainly wouldn't buy one now; and I ignore (for the most part) the outrageously expensive "must have" improved versions.
LP12, Ittok (black), DV10X5, NVA Phono 2 (twin supply), NVAP50, Art Audio Quintet 15w power amp, NVA LS5 cable, Rega Ela mk1's.
Sony CDP XB930.
