I think that a lot of this has to do with marketing at the time. I've had a few (and still have one) LP12s going back to the mid 1980's. When properly set up, the LP12 is a fun listen for sure. The Systemdek III though is also highly enjoyable and its suspension is less of a bother - once set up, it seems to stay that way.
As mentioned earlier, very important to use the right type and viscosity bearing oil for optimum sonic output from this TT (probably due to its special bearing design). Also; if the rubber platter damping ring has dried out, replace it with a fresh one - it makes a difference too.
Happy listening!
