Consider Ariston turntables(generally as good or better than Linns, I believe). Unfortunately, the company is out of business. I have to admit that I only heard the Linn once( the Ariston beat it), and I have since bought a Linn, ekos, archiv, Lingo, but haven't set it up on the Mana table yet. I also recommend the Mapleshade maple and footers for the the table. What happens with a belt-driven suspended subchasis turntable, is that once the belt picks up the platter, you have a closed system(i.e., the arm and table don't move independently, and hopefully the motor). I just wanted to be a little bit of a naysayer to the current fav-Teres, etc. Also, those people might want to consider if their company will still be in business years from now(which can be important).
