Advice for a new analog system
Hello everyone and thank you in advance for your advice.
I have made the decision to venture into the magical world of vinyl.
I was considering a VPI Avenger Direct (round 34K) turntable and CJ or Audio Research phono preamps.
As a cartridge I have in mind the Clearaudio Davinci.
I have been doing some research on Agon and apparently there are a lot of users who don't like VPI and considering the investment in the turntable I imagine there must be many options.
I prefer the short cut of a single investment for life.
My system is Mc C1100, mc 1.25Kw and Dynaudio Evidence Platinum speakers.
What turntable and system would you recommend, I appreciate your advice.

Thank you all again and thank you Juan for your disinterested offer, I really appreciate it, I have a lot of research to do thanks to all your contributions, which makes this trip really fascinating. @blisshifi I accept your offer Juan as soon as I do the research homework I will be in touch for your advice. Thank you. |
@fatdaddy2 Yes I have audiophile friends and I have certainly gone to them for advice, I have no need to impress anyone I am just looking for the best system the budget that I have determined can buy. I am convinced that fools learn from their mistakes and wise men learn from experience, (that doesn't mean I won't make mistakes, I just want to minimize the possibility) in that sense the more experience I can learn from others the better, I believe this is one of the main objectives of this forum and I appreciate the time and selflessness of the participants in contributing selflessly in my personal project. @pindac You got it right. |
@jb1 Yes I am aware of the phono preamp built into the C1100, in fact my local dealer has loaned me a VPI Prime 21 turntable plugged directly into it while I decide on the purchase. I hope to be able to listen to it early next week once the room setup is complete (I'm changing rooms), maybe I will have a chance to listen to it with the CJ phono preamp and compare. I will keep you posted, thank you very much. |
