On the way to me from Portugal an extremely rare turntable - the Sharp RP107. Plays vinyl like CDs both sides without turning disc over and programmable track play.

Demo video from Youtube

He was asking £450 for it but we eventually settled on £390 plus £24 shipping - fully dealer serviced new belts and stylii. I have been after one of these for a couple of years. In the US they sell upwards of $450 plus shipping of $120 and are 110v.

This will relegate my Sharp RP7100 direct drive traditional style deck (also with same programme track system which works well on most disks) to a spare

There were quite a few manufacturers of front loading turntables inc Panasonic, Pioneer, Sansui, Sony and even Amstrad. Very few played both sides or were programmable.
