Well I'm not going to read a whole thread of email but the subject line intrigues me, what has to be user friendly about a turntable? I've been using them for nearly 40 years and in that time it hasn't caused me too much of a strain to put the needle on the old long playing record so given all

Seemingly Olympus have named their machines differently for different markets. So the 4 is the 5 in the UK. Or is it the other way round. Anyway, armed with that knowledge, you may be able to dig further ... If you didn't already know that is. -Original Message- From:
