Hi...

I work for a popular electronics company in their Service Department, specifically with parts.

Very frequently I will field calls from Consumers looking for parts for vintage equipment. If the parts can no longer be supplied I will often refer people to this forum as a resource for obtaining additional information in hopes they will either A) find a 3rd party resource for supplying generic parts that others have used or B) possibly find another AVS forum member who possesses the same unit and could possibly help in supplying the part in need.

Most often this is the case with vintage receivers and turntables.

I know there is a receiver section but I don't see a forum that would be appropriate for posting questions about turntables?

Perhaps either a section specifically for turntables should be created or perhaps a section for vintage/ classic audio equipment could be created?

This forum has been a great resource to me so I'd like to continue referring people here in hopes that it will also be a resource to them.

Thank you.

Thank you for the references. Turntables really would not be something for this site I am sorry to say. While still used and what have you, it is just not something someone comes here for. We usually talk new tech for the most part.

we do talk about some high end turntables in the over $20k forum:

you are welcome to post there if you are into high end stuff

I was dealing with one today that costs $1700 and was even suprised at that price tag....

the 20k high end forum was originally for projectors and why it is in the display forum (and 20k). There was very little to discuss there because most projector discussion was in the high end. Even though 20k is still in the name anything extremely high end in its category or obscure is discussed there.

Turntable threads usually crop up in the CD player and music transport forum. I would probably ask around in there.
