Can anybody suggest a turntable that can play records that have slight defects such as warped or off-center? Also, please include the cost with your recommendations. Thanks, Bob Gottesman

<giulp> The Nak Dragon turntable was designed specifically to counteract such problems as off-center records. Its only drawback is its price tag (I think around $1000 including arm, but without cartridge), which puts it in the price class of the Linn Sondek, Mission 775, and SOTA tables.

I agree! I wanted to add though that AR and SHINON also introduced new tables that look very promissing, especially since they cost less than other high-end tables. I heard the SHINON and I believe it may be the first table under 600.00 to compare in all ways with the best. David S. Mohler AT&T - ISL @ Denver drune!mohler <---- Notice new path.

The current discussion about turntables has reminded of a question I have about turntable mats. I recently bought a Dual 505-II (which is a vast improvement over my Sony - I love it!) and I replaced the mat it came with with an anti-static mat. A friend pointed out that the mat might be there for more reasons than just to keep the record from slipping. Is there any truth to this?
