The upper-middle Music Hall: acrylic platter, outboard motor and 2M Bronze on the double plinth.
Model history: Music Hall describes the MMF-7.3 as the evolution of its original MMF-7 and 7.1, keeping a similar look but switching to a DC motor (from the 7.1's AC motor) and bundling an Ortofon 2M Bronze cartridge in place of the earlier Mojo cartridge.

Who it suits
Best suited to: a first serious turntable for an existing or planned amp-and-speakers setup. Less ideal for: plugging straight into passive speakers with no amp — check the built-in phono stage row above, and note most hi-fi decks still need external amplification.
Compatibility and setup
- Manual operation: you cue and lift the tonearm by hand at the start and end of each side — there’s no auto-return or auto-lift.
Good to know
- No built-in phono stage — use an amplifier with a phono input or add a separate phono preamplifier.
- Sold without a cartridge fitted — budget for a compatible cartridge and setup before first use.
