They are both made in the same factory but the MMF 2.1 has a steel platter, which is not good for the magnets in cartridges, while the Pro-ject 1.2 has an aluminum platter that has been drilled for more accurate balance. The tonearm is also of a higher quality on the Pro-ject. The rest is pretty much the same.
mmf 2.1 or pro-ject 1.2?
I'm thinking about trying a turntable I'm considering the MMF 2.1 or the Pro-ject 1.2. I thought I read that they were both made in the same factory. Is this true? Is there any real difference between these two turntables. The Pro-ject comes with an oyster cartridge and the MMF comes with a Elan. Is one any better than the other? I would like to hear opinions about either of these. I listen to mostly rock and jazz. I have a ss pre and a tube amp with Triangle spks. Thanks in advance.
