Is that all of the TTX' that do that?

The great Numark TTX. I'm a proud owner. It plays backwards, yes.

Never thought of that one, I believe there is a deck that can play backwards, A Numark I think.

Here's how you could still play it forwards:

Remove the cartridge with headshell, turn it 180 degrees so that the
stylus points up and put it back on the tonearm. Put an ashtray of
suitable height on the platter. Put the record with the playing side
down on the ashtray. Lift the tonearm so that the stylus touches the
record at centre . Play it.

A friend of mine used to actually do this with a normal copy of "Moments
In Love" when DJ'ing. Nobody noticed that it was playing backwards...

You could of course also play it normally and record it to your computer
and then use an audio editing program to reverse the audio.
