(Swedish) Record players with RIAA Group test - 6.6/10
The first impression was that Teac played with both drive and
weight in the impact, but also with a blunter, a bit jumpy sound
and narrower stereo feel. There was power and pulse, but not
nearly the same openness and distinctive stereo sharpness as,
for example, the Argon. It all depended on the pickup, which had
muscle, but couldn't take the turns and open up the sound as
much as, say, the AT-VM95. With that pickup, the player's
tactful playing style also became even clearer, but the stereo
image was also more spacious and the treble airier."
