was just wondering where i can get a bnew goldring turntable that accepts credit card payments

hope you can point me to the right direction

to the mods sorry if i posted this on the wrong thread

you can try DCM at Cubao/Melvin Chua/9115903
i got mine there.
i just don't know if Melvin accepts cc payments... there's no harm in asking

Carts can easily be replaced. Having a good tonearm is very important.

Just my 2-cents, Simon...an OEM is an OEM, a Rega is a Rega...pound for pound, I'll go for the Rega P1...I have had the chance to own a GR-1 and 1.2...was able to listen to a P1 as well...for me, the P1 is better...again, this is me...Thanks and good luck! Let me know if I can be of help...

simonzaide · « **Reply #15 on:** Dec 16, 2009 at 09:29 AM »

la na bro umiiyak na ang bulsa... 1 year warranty yung tt so 1 year ko sya di pwede galawin (no funkfirm type upgrade) gives me enough time to save up

Congrats !!! if Denon DL-103 will fit your GR maybe it will be a nice step next year bro Simon
