The Funk Firm Little Super Deck

Arthur Khoubesserian's clever low-mass design: the Funk Firm's three-point belt drive and vibration-management thinking in an affordable package.

Radical low-mass engineering from a genuine British original.

Who it suits

Best suited to: an established system where the amp, speakers and room can resolve what this deck retrieves from the groove. Less ideal for: a first turntable — the same budget goes much further spent on mid-range separates first; anyone who wants a manufacturer warranty — this model is no longer sold new.

Compatibility and setup

• Manual operation: you cue and lift the tonearm by hand at the start and end of each side — there’s no auto-return or auto-lift.

Good to know

• No built-in phono stage — use an amplifier with a phono input or add a separate phono preamplifier.
• Sold without a cartridge fitted — budget for a compatible cartridge and setup before first use.
• This is a used-market purchase. Ask about condition, originality and service history — for this drive type, check the drive belt (often perished or stretched with age) and bearing, plus the stylus regardless.
• Professional setup of tracking force, alignment, azimuth and arm height is worth budgeting for at this level.
