The Sony PS-2250 is an extremely competent and very well-built direct drive turntable - Sony's first DD, fitted with an excellent arm and affording exceptional sonics if correctly set up. Which this table is!
It offers VTA on the fly, is entirely manual, 33.3 and 45 rpm with pitch adjustment and stroboscope, heavy die cast platter, an elegant wood plinth.
the Dustcover is clean!
the Sony definitely has a " Garrard" 401 look!
