EMT turntables as good as other great vintage TT?


Are the EMT turntables as good as the great Micro Seiki turntables, or the Pioneer Exclusive P3, or any of the other great vintage turntables. How would they stack up to today's modern turntables? I realize there are many different turntables in the EMT line. I have been reading that the 930st or the 950 seem to be the one's to buy with the 927 being quite rare and very expensive. Could someone take the mystery out of this line? Are they more collectible than sonically relevant?

Hi guys,
this is a very old thread.....but i hope someone will reply
i own an EMT 948 with 8 boards, service board, hour-counter, and light.
it is perfect

Cartridge JSD 6
i am planning to upgrade with the 2 x F2 board

I already own the cable to bypass the electronics and feed a phono-stage from the arm
I just listen to chamber music
Should i stay with the EMT "philosophy" and the new F2 boards?
or should i try an external phono-stage? and in this case what do you suggest?
