Teac LPR500

Is it me, or is this quite a cool machine:

A good brand, & looks like those old 'music centres' from the 80s, with the added benefits of a remote & aux-in for an iPod dock.
Sadly, it doesn't look like you can plug in extension speakers & the tape deck doesn't record - probably because the CD player does
Here's the manual, if you're interested:

It looks cool, but looks like "cheap" quality at first glance. Cassette player doesn't record? No external speakers?

However, there are plenty of people that this unit would be perfect for.

Only has 70mm speakers (less than 3" in old money). Oh dear.

So, on balance, I'd much rather have one of these:

Audio-Technica AT-LP120.
A Technics 1200 style machine at a price I might one day be able to afford. A decent brand & with USB out as well. Might see if I can find the old wall-mounted Target turntable stand...
Oh, here's some blurb from the manufacturer:

I dont really like the look of it but I can appreciate the almost quirky look of it!

Bet it sounds terrible...
