JVC L-A55 Semi Automatic TT... Doorway to Vinyl

The JVC L-A55 is a direct drive turntable produced from 1979-1981. It has a broad frequency response and low distortion. Reviews say the L-A55 is reliable, quiet, and smooth, and that it keeps perfect speed without replacement caps. We'd agree, just a nice overall presentation and a perfect segue into vinyl.
