If you were looking for a direct drive turntable ...


Let's say one that cost less than $3K, with cartridge, what would you look at? I'd been thinking about a Technics SL-1200GR, but they seem no longer to be available. Which has led me to the Thorens 403, the Music Hall Stealth, and ...?

Please do help.

Unless, that is, I end up getting a Rega and stick with belt drive.

Thanks for indulging me on my quest, as I'm old and don't have limitless funds.

I would recommend a new Rega P8 with Rega cartridge.

Easy to set up, use and outstanding performance for the money.

If you purchase with a Rega cartridge, you should be able to order it pre set up and ready to go.

See Fremers review of the P10. The P8 is close.
