Interesting - I've never owned many turntables in my life, but I don't recall ever feeling I've needed a detachable headshell - probably because I don't change cartridge terribly frequently. My venerable Planar 3 (something like 22-24 years old now) is still going strong, though maybe it's getting a bit like Trigger's broom, with replacement of a few parts recently, with the most significant mod being one of the new 24V motors. At the moment, I'm using a Rega Fono Mini A2D as a phono stage and as an ADC for digitising vinyl. It has a USB port on the front plate, which is convenient. I've been hanging out over at the VinylEngine forums lately.
