For that level of TT and cart, NO WAY! As suggested, get the best you can afford now, buy a few hundred albums, listen, listen, listen, then forget the power supply and upgrade your TT a few times before you ever think PS again. (Unless of course it is to upgrade a wall-wart PS to a real PS, which is generally well worth it!).
3k budget for Turntable and Phono Noob- do I need external power supplies?
Good Day All,
Trying to put together a vinyl rig for the first time, the local shops all have Rega and Project so will likely land there however open to suggestions
Is it worth adding a $500 Sbooster or IFI Elite to either the TT or phono or both?
or should I up budget to 4k without them?
I was thinking either Rega P3 Special edition with their Aria phono or Project X1B with their balanced phono
thanks in advance
