SRM Tech updates their turntables for 2011 and we decided to give them a spin

There are two types of turntable: suspended subchassis and high-mass; Pro-Ject has combined the two!

Pro-Ject has a new turntable to tempt those at the start of their vinyl journey

Die-hard LP12 fans have found a new haven in Well Tempered

We put a £1,700 German-made turntable from Acoustic Signature through its paces

A new contender on the UK hi-fi scene, this German-made turntable boasts a respectable track record

Rega's P7 has some impressive aesthetics, but the blind listening panel are divided over its sound quality

Brand new acrylic turntable combines Pro-Ject's impressive credentials with a top-quality hi-fi performance

Funk Firm has broken the mould once again with the Vector 3, their latest non-resonant turntable

How does this Rega-based turntable perform?

Michell has built just 99 examples of what might be the best Gyro ever

Rega has revised its entry-level record player, adding a new tonearm and platter material

Calling on a century of expertise, this new Thorens turntable has an enviable tonal quality

At home with most types of music from classical to rock, here is a turntable with a wide appeal

Stylish-looking and fitted with a dust cover, the 6 Perspex promises a great deal with its performance

Putting the competition to shame in terms of rhythm and pace, the Radius 5. 2 has much to recommend it

We find a way into Clearaudio ownership that won't break the bank – the new £1,050 plug 'n' play Concept

Clearaudio update their popular budget hi-fi turntable with a special edition

The Linn Sondek LP12 was once the be all and end all of not only turntables, but serious hi-fi as a whole. In the late seventies and early eighties your masculinity was certainly in doubt if you didn’t own an LP12. That’s assuming that you believed the hype in magazines and from Linn dealers.

We had high hopes for the Saffire, the new top-of-the-range model, which is hailed as the modern day replacement for the still-popular-after-all-these-years, Pink Triangle Anniversary.
