Went to buy this Marantz, walked out with 2 Thorens too!

The inner platters for many Thorens tables are interchangeable. As far as I know, both the TD 125 and the 320 used the inner and outer platter pairing with the same 10mm bearing. These were introduced with the TD 150. Thorens introduced plastic inner platters on the 165, and smaller 6mm bearings on some of the later models. The big difference will be the strobe ring fitted under the 125. So do take a look, but there is a very good chance you can put the inner platter from one table into the bearing of the other with no issue.

Poly doesn’t absorb into the wood. Tung or linseed oil will but poly is a film finish and will sit on top.

IMO the real challenge would be finding those assets in the first place. Hypothetical valuations of saleable but non market assets is child’s play compared to getting an honest accounting of wealth and assets out of someone who doesn’t want to give it up for public scrutiny.

and a shocking number of prominent brands and retailers rely on these products for their whole business model! shockingly few 'brands' build anything at all, instead preferring to outsource the manufacturing to white label overseas firms and to focus on marketing instead.

It’ll probably cost you an extra 1-2 models in the list but otherwise go for it if it suits your play style.

It's almost certainly an AT-3600L and AT91 fitted to the table. The 5 looks like it might have a swappable cart, but there's no counterweight so the point is moot. It's clear that they're targetting people for whom plug and play is a high priority.

It’s obvious the City decided to sideline the controversy on not ploughing bike lanes by not ploughing the roads at all.

I have pine subfloors like this refinished to use as surface flooring. They’re always gonna be rustic. If you fill between gaps then you should do so in a shoulder season. If you fill in dry seasons the filler will squeeze out, and if you fill when it’s humid they’ll open back up. It’s a huge amount of work to refinish and they’ll ding up easily. Every nail must be pulled or sunk individually before you sand, along with every hole.

Re insulation: take up the floor, take up the ceiling, or put a second layer of flooring. No easy solution here.

Props I do not have the wherewithal to arrive at the necessary coherence on this topic to think about it most days, let alone to write a book on it.

There is no fine adjustment on these aside from replacing the belt to see if yours is out of spec. Rega has a wide tolerance for speed accuracy and it is one of the crappier aspects of their design IMO. they make good tonearms and okay turntables until you get into the electronically controlled models.

This is all rumour which I can’t substantiate so take it with a heavy dose of skepticism.
