I want a very high-quality table, at least semi-automatic (I'm lazy!). The most attractive one I've found so far is the Thorens TD146. Does anyone out there have any comments/experiences with this table, the TP 11 Mk III arm (weight-and-string anti-skate), or Thorens in general? I'm also trying to decide what cartridge to put in it. The store is pushing Adcom "high-output" moving-coil cartridges, which are supposed to work OK with a standard (i.e. moving-magnet) preamp. Is anyone familiar with these cartridges? Unfortunately the store doesn't have a real extensive selection of cartridges to choose from. I haven't had time to sit down and seriously audition the Adcom yet, but I thought I would see if anyone else knew anything about it. Thanks in advance for any help. Please respond BY MAIL -- our news connection has been VERY sporadic lately. (I'm not even positive this note will make it OUT!) Gary Fritz Hewlett Packard {ihnp4,hplabs}!hpfcla!fritz
