For that money, check out the Bergmann turntables. Modi or Galder models. They perform superbly. Several options for cartridges. Their linear tracking arms are excellent. Make sure you get a good tube phono preamp. The combination of a Bergmann and good phono preamp will result in a lifetime of beautiful listening. You’ll be amazed how good new and old vinyl can sound.
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.
