Does anyone know, or can recommend, suggest a linear tracking turntable with the following features.

1. Motorized tone arm.
2. manual control of tone arm placement.

Something in the range of around £100 - £300ish

If you’re looking for quality I’d probably look for a Denon or an Aiwa 3000.

Be careful with the cheap ones. Some run at a fixed pitch and are far, far worse at everything than even a modest pivoting arm.

After some research I'm leaning more towards at getting a micro controlled linear rails set up instead of a whole deck with a linear arm.
