Practical differences

Highlighted cells show a lower reference price, support for more listed speeds, or the presence of a convenience feature. They are not an overall score.

Both are belt-drive, so that part of the experience should feel similar on either deck: a motor that's mechanically isolated from the platter by an elastic belt, which is the usual route to a quieter noise floor — the default choice across most of hi-fi.

Beyond that, these two are close in the recorded fields. Build quality, condition, setup and dealer support are not captured by this table.

Bottom line: $0 separates these reference prices. That difference is factual; this specification comparison does not assign an overall winner.
