Welcome to the world of vinyl. We can all give you advice but only your ears can tell you what you like. As for the phono stage different cartridges need to be driven differently so some thing that allows you to change on the fly I believe is necessary. Then try different technologies SS, tube, and hybrid. I personally preferer tubes. Try the used market before you spend the big bucks. Did you have a budget in mind? But most of all have fun with it.
First table, second cartridge, ...
Hey folks,
Still relatively new to vinyl.
Sought and received some great advice here in a previous thread on my first cartridge upgrade on my first turntable. This is a Rega RP8 fed by my "starter" phono stage (Vincent PHO 8).
I decided to trade in my damaged Exact for the Ania Pro.
I plan on using the Vincent for a while and listen for and learn about the differences going with a moving coil. But would like to start looking into upgrading that now.
Any suggestions for a phono stage upgrade?
Or would an SUT be an option?
Thanks everyone!
