Yeah. I've got two PD-S505 Precision players too. They're excellent!Originally Posted by symon
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Speed's spot on Al, ran it for about 15 minutes while we looked at his set up (different Sony DD turntable/Audiolab/Martin Logan ESLs) & it hadn't wavered. Got to do a little fettling, VTAs way out so I'll need to find a small allen key to adjust it. It's in pristine condition & has obviously been well looked after.Roy , providing the speed is stable you will love it as I love my 6750
