Where the numbers come from
The guide only states what the day's catalog shows: each number comes from the reading on 06/11/2026, and the median is for record players with the data.
The guide helps you decide and doesn’t recommend a record player for you: the final price is the one at the store, and the spec score doesn’t measure the sound or durability.
