I'm still using a Concept 2QD DD turntable from 1978 and it still works perfect and sounds great, but I also have an Origin live Calypso Mk4 that also sounds great, they both have their pluses and minuses, and I wouldn't get rid of either one.
Looking for a mid-priced TT to install my 2M Black Cart
I am in the process of shopping of maximizing the value of some of my second system and doing some strategic upgrades. my first TT was the Project Carbon Debut DC with an Ortofon 2M Red (MM). I upgraded that to the 2M Black (MM) and it turned it into a great rig (to a point).
I am very aware. that the 2M Black exceeds the capabilities of the TT, so as I optimize this second system, I am looking for a good turntable that would provide a significant sonic improvement over the Project Debut Carbon, and would match well with the 2M Black. I would like to keep it below $1500 (ideally under $1000).
I am leaving out the other details of my system to keep this focused on the TT and not have this turn into a poll of what part of my rig's chain I should optimize next... ;-).
Just want some TT options under $1.5K that will help the 2M open up even more!
Thanks!
