Mikek,
That lathe is only 400 lbs, unless you max it out with accessories.
Two big amplifiers would weigh more than the lathe.
And it's not that expensive, either. If I needed a lathe, this one or
the next larger one would be a very good choice. But like you, I also
need a bigger shop. Next to the bigger shack I also need.

I hope it can only get better, we had a Horror Fright mini lathe where I worked and it was a pain to work with, to small and had a built in taper among other problems.
I'm looking at probably the PM1022V, and at least 4 additional accessories.
But there's always another accessory you need or wish you had.
I either need to build a new shop or put some support under the floor in the one I have.
