I think the biggest plus of 1200/1210s are the availability of new and used parts. They sold a ton of them.

Even a moderately modded one will outperform the speakers, and amplification in a modest system. I think they are perfect for someone just getting into the hobby. It's a table that can be modified and tailored to work with just about any combination of components, or speakers.

A TD-124 or 301 can do the same thing, but come with a steeper cost of admission.
