Though I am not positive, I believe that there is a water filtration system on the TA1400. Am trying to decide between them myself.

As Cory said, the 1400 has a water filter. The filter needs to be replaced periodically - an added expense. It also has a larger water tank. I have the 1200 and love it.

The specs are about the same, but the RTR-EV 1200 is a newer model and has only been on the market for a couple of years. Also, they are ported differently.

Nothing is as good as the 1200. Period. However, if you really want a cheaper alternative, maybe get a new ark but still get the Sure n-77 needle and m-77 cartridge.

As far as individual units , and specs-wise , no difference at all . Apparently ,only difference between the 2 sets is the carrying case on the TS model, which seems to quite convenient and accomodating .

Thanks, have been tracking the prices. The 630 model is below 900.00 and looks like a good option if the 650 doesn't acome down soon. I'll wait alitlle longer. Hate tp pay more when it was that low. New models will be coming out soon at higher prices, so may see some closeout here.

Please post a link if you know this specific model is on sale somewhere! :) I've seen the lesser versions (1810TZ and 1410) on sale and people confuse them with the 1810T, but this is the specific one I'm hoping to buy ASAP!

It's actually all about the thickness of the thread. Your 1200 could be a very thin thread about equal to the thicker thread in the 500. It's really confusing and you have to check the details to determine what you're getting for your money

I just saw this demonstrated on HSN and am interested. So that means I'm researching and reading reviews. Noticed the one on the QVC site claims a 1700W, 2-1/4 horsepower motor. If correct, that's slightly different to this 1400 W motor.

I bought the 1400. It takes nice pictures. Only concern is that it almost feels too small....

Amazon keeps tweeking the price of this 550 and the other models constantly. Even daily!!!!! Mostly by just a few bucks???I recently bought my daughter a 550 for $879. I wanted one also so I waiting, hoping the price would drop a little. Nope......now the same set is over $900.So I found the same set at US Appliance for $849. Free shipping Sorry Amazon

I own (and love) my 200 but never used 135. Nevertheless, if I had to shop all over again, I would get the 135 instead. I think the 200 is bit less versatile. From online reviews 135 also has a bit of an edge in terms of optical quality. Though I have to say the my 200 lacks nothing in IQ.

The 550 is 30000:1, The 650 is 50000:1 There is a big difference in PQ of these two sets.The 650 being better.

This one is prettier! I have the 650 but I don't have the 640 so I can't really make a comment if whether they have the near exact specifications like you stated. I always thought the bigger the model number the better. If I have time I might stop by a Best Buy to play around with it. If you can get the 650 for $900 free shipping on amazon, it's still a good deal. But if you're fortunate enough to live in a state that has a brick and mortar Fry's Electronics, sometimes they have it on sale for $700 plus tax. Their price is different though via frys dot com. You can wait around until Thanksgiving but I don't think it's gonna drop to less than $800 on a 1-day sale. This one is prettier!

ditto I have the same questions before puchasing anything. I'm leaning toward Le Pan but curious how TC970 compares to the newer LePan II. Is it worth the $80. Why purchase for $249 from HSN when Amazon is 199? What do you get for the extra $49?

This is the VR-1 (older version)....yes the price for these are around 1200-1400. If you paid 2600 I definitely hope you bought the VR2 version....

Similar. Bit more plastic in the 140 (I think the cooling fan on the 130 might not be plastic, but haven't used one in a while). The 140 seems to run a little better, 140 also has ability to run a spool gun that the 130 could not. I'd call it better, and the Millermatic 130 hasn't been made for a few years - if you can pick up a used one cheap go for it, but for a good 110V Mig welder this one is hard to beat. Overall they are very similar, intended for the same use. The 140 w/ Autoset just cranks a little more, and can be easier to use for "first timers". Mine, I recently was welding 6" SCH 40 pipe (capping it with 3/16" plate, for ornamental work) and I was surprised at how well it ran with .030 wire. It's a good machine, and great for the home hobbyist.

1040. I put it in the garage sale pile after one use. I switched to the Presto 1440 as well. FAR superior.
