Record Player: Pioneer PL-200 vs PL250

[derekwwww]

Can anyone shed some light on which of these two record players are the better one? I am looking to buy one and can get them for about the same price.

Thanks

Basically the same. IIRC, one was the normal model (PL-200) for stereo stores and the PL-250 was the department store/mass merchandiser model number. Is the PL-250 black or dark gray? That's another difference but the rest of the turntable is the same. If it hasn't been used in a long time, you'll need a new belt- 23.6 cm and they're available at Needle Dr- lower price than when I left the first store in '88, too.
