I don’t have one .
I never had a nice turntable. My last “record player” was a Sony that had a kind of x-y stylus drive. Not really sure why I had bought that, but I was enamored with Sony products. My very first (circa 1969) turntable was a Sony with a beautiful walnut cabinet. I guess I just kept going with Sony. My engineering colleague told me (circa 1995) “you know the Sony stuff is all crap.”
Well the “modern” Sony turntable broke down and I was frustrated and gave my entire record collection to Goodwill. Maybe 150+ albums including every first edition Rolling Stones albums. I was mistakenly thinking I could replace them all with CDs.
The only consolation was that the Stones records were scratched-up - remember stacking many pennies on styleless so the records wouldn’t skip.
What I really miss are the Jonathan Winters comedy albums which, probably, couldn’t be reissued without a local riot.
I do still have my Klipsch Forte speakers which my wife won’t allow in the house. I will build a shop to properly house them and blast Tchaikovsky‘s 1812 Overture.

Still using my Jobo acoustical 3100 every sunday, while my Bell tube amp is running nearly every day.
Playing this currently. My original Dual is back in mothballs.

Listening to music on vinyl is my other passion. I have a Rega Planar 3 (P3). Rega just released a 50th anniversary edition of the P3 this month.
Unfortunately, similar to the Porsche world, Vinyl has gotten popular again over the past 10 years or so -- everything has jumped in price. Records are much more expensive now -- some of the records in my collection have become very valuable which almost takes the fun out of it sometimes - as I use/listen to my records.

A good add-on to a vintage vinyl setup.. not as powerful as Klipsch but will play a pipe organ.
