Well my old Dual 606, is getting old, and the rumble on it is getting bad. I am looking at getting a new turntable, for my LP to CD-R transfer. What I am looking at is the Denon DP-47F. So what does everyone think?

i have a DP-7F and it's performed very nicely with my Ortophon cartridge. Pretty robust too, as it's been shipped around with me quite a bit and is still kicking.
Certainly, there are more hi-fi tables out there...but with a variety of available styli out there, I'd say it's a good buy...

I had a peep on the Denon website. The turntable seems quite sturdy which is a good advantage. However, I am not impressed by the tonearm assembly and the too many automatic features.
I would at least go out to the nearest hi-fi shop to compare it with what is available in the same bugdet range and then take a final decision. It's a day of work for a lifetime investment. Do you have the retail price of this turntable? I can suggest you other things to look at.

hi Uru. Yeah, I'd have to agree with you about the Tonearm - that's probably the 'weakest' part of the turntable; but it is rather sturdy otherwise. :-)
