Over 40 years' worth of research and development has gone into this latest evolution of the turntable that turned the hi-fi industry on its head. Each precision-engineered upgrade has uncovered more music from the depths of the record groove.

It has potential, but it still needs work`

It's a rather realistic take on the Marantz 6300 from the 1970s, and not too far from the real unit's size - thankfully. However, it's not perfect. Its first and main problem is that it's just one mesh part. So, the lid doesn't open and close, the arm doesn't move, the platter doesn't spin, and the strobe doesn't light up. Second, the tonearm wand, the platter, and the knobs should have been far shinier.

Then, there's the texturing. The plinth's wood has a hue that's way too light for the 1970s; light oak, maple, spruce, cherry, and the like, began being fashionable in the 2000s - in the 1970s, walnut, dark oak, and rosewood were all the rage. The grooves on the "record" are far, far too thick. It looks like the creator merely added an LP label in the centre of the real unit's platter mat. Also, because the record's texture face is so off-centre, you can't add a texture rotation script and expect it to work.
