    You can't - not a suitable one anyway (which is why both the companies to produce new direct drive decks in the last few years had to build their own).

    I'm sure you knew that though.

    I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,

    Since the Technics is still in production, is it not possible to buy the motor from Panasonic on an OEM basis?

    Dave, please don't try to bring reality into my world (I do think analogue is stronger now than it was 10 years ago though - at least, I don't seem to have any difficulty buying the new releases I want.

    Which record shops do you go to? I never find I'm rummaging through crates next to a lady. I must be going to the wrong places.
