Thumbs up TV Series "Suits" features lots of vinyl LP's and turntables

.
The New York City Law Office of Harvey Specter, the main character in the television series "Suits", features a considerable number of Vinyl LP's conspicuously placed in racks along the walls. In several episodes, Specter is seen playing a record or two.

.

. . .


To this point, I've not been able to fully identify the turntable Specter uses, but I have noticed that his cartridge looks like an Ortofon 2M Red -

The picture that follows shows Specter's young associate, Mike Ross, messing with one of the turntables which I think looks like either a VPI Scoutmaster with upgraded feet, or an Aires.

.




It does appears that more than one turntable has shown up during the course of the show's run. (Which I enjoy watching on NetFlix or Amazon via my ROKU device.). And, another segment showed this table - which may be in Harvey's condo.

.




Oracle has announced that their turntables will be featured in the upcoming season 3 of the series - slated to premier on July 14th.

Quote:
The Oracle Delphi MK VI and the Oracle Paris have been selected to be part of the set decoration for the season 3 of SUITS in Harvey Reginal Specter office ( Paris turntable ) and in his condo ( Oracle Delphi MK VI ) ...

It's one of my favorite shows as well . Thanks for reminding me the seasons premier is Sunday. Didn't remember they had changed the day.

Regards, Mark

Think it's along the lines of Super Scoutmaster--see outboard motor!

Thanks Myles, I do Agree . . . I didn't notice the outboard motor off to the left of the table in the picture above.

Good Choice in tables - but why use it with a $100 Ortofon Red?

If it (Ortofon Red) gets damaged on the set (easy to do) no big loss. Besides - who would notice but an Audio-geek?
