The Denon 47F is a very good choice if you do not want to do to much mixing and matching. The arm is a proprietary design which has its limitations but would not involve much in the way of set up. That or one of the Regas or Music Halls is a good way to give vinyl a try to see if its for you. But make sure your pre-amp or receiver has a phono stage built in. There is additional equalization and amplification required for a TT as opposed to a tuner or CD.
Amazing...
After deciding to dabble in vinyl i've been reading the TT threads and am amazed at the depth and breadth of information offered here. I never new there was so much to it! To get to my question... Since deciding to go vinyl I am now considering the possibility of purchasing TT seperates. Is there a resource available that guides one in this endeavor? I see all kinds of arms for sale with different arm boards. I'm pretty sure you just can't put any arm on any TT but don't know where to begin. I thought I'd start with a Denon (Dp-47F or similar TT) but the more I look and become educated the more I think maybe I should take a different path. Again, thanks in advance.
