Art Or Technology?
I can't decide, probably both. This SME Model 30/2 Turntable is the most expensive record player I could find, though. And, at 90 pounds (this time the weight, not the currency), the heaviest. In terms of aesthetic beauty, however, my choice would be this:
Kuzma Stabi XL Turntable, which weighs in at around 45 pounds. It is made from solid brass and has the appearance of Le Corbursier architecture. Finally, artistically speaking, there is this:
Clearaudio Maximum Solution Turntable. It is definitely one of the most beautiful pieces of machinery I have ever seen. It has a very clean look, like something you would use in an operating room or for scientific experiments. It is hand-made and way more expensive than I could ever afford. I'm sure all of my DJ friends will get a kick out of this stuff.
