You could find a very nice Thorens TD-124 or TD-125 for that much money. There was a version of the 125 that Thorens built that came with a 12 inch SME tonearm. Buy a Schiit Mani, and if that seems too budget there's a company that makes an external PSU for it.
Is a GREAT turntable under $2000 possible???
Howdy folks-
I’m really enjoying my current set up and return to 2.1 channel listening and Home Theater. Here’s what I’ve got:
-Mc402 Amp
-Anthem Mrx 520
-Oppo 103 Bdp with Scott Nixon tube dac
-Mac Mini with a Scott Nixon Usb tube dac
-Audience and Wireworld cables
-Tekton Electron speakers
I’d like to introduce vinyl to my evening listening pleasure. Any recommendations for a turntable (including arm, cartridge, etc) under $2000? Is this a reasonable figure? I have no clue when it comes to turntables so any advice given is surely appreciated.
