Choosing Between 2 Turntables


I am trying to decide between 2 Tables.
One is A Raven One Havent decided on A arm or cartridge yet.
The other table is a Garrard 301 - With A Custom Plynth
From Steve D. With A Triplanar Arm - No cartridge yet.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you

well....since i am presently enjoying my Steve Dobbins custom plinth'd 301 with Triplaner i suppose i'm a bit biased. even though i'm still getting to know it somewhat i can tell you that i just want to keep playing record after record whenever i listen to it (and my uber tt the Rockport sits three feet from it).

Steve Dobbins plinth'd 301 with Triplaner and dual arm-boards

it doesn't hurt that it is drop-dead gorgeous. Steve really knows his 301's and mine is dead quiet.

i did hear the Raven One at RMAF and it is certainly a nice tt and beautifully built......excellent performance for a $5k commercial tt.

my opinion is that the Dobbins 301 plays in a much higher league particularly in terms of musical involvement.
