Old school analog system

My system is 1/3 vintage, because all my turntables and nearly all my cartridges and tonearms are from the 70s/80s. But all my cables, amps, phono stages and speakers are new high-end. The only exception was for NOS tubes when i was using new high-end tube amps (not anymore). 

Honestly, my taste will not allow me to buy any new turntable, i can't even imagine any of them in my house, because the design is very important for me, i want to see those "real" top quality stylish vintage high-end turntables like Luxman PD-444 with many vintage tonearms on it. Or Technics SP-10mkII, SP-20, Denon DP-80 and Victor TT-101.

Actually i do not need more than two Luxman PD-444, but i am a proud owner of the DP-80 and TT-101. Here is one of the latest pics from the studio with vintage and new gear, custom made racks, acoustic treatment and some records. 

I adore vintage gear when it comes to tonearms, cartridges and turntables. In my opinion there is something wrong with modern design of the turntables and their prices, i wouldn't use them even for free (any of them).    





  

Thanks for a kind words @normansizemore
The design of the Luxman PD-444 reminds me a cutting lathe for its monolith (22kg without arms). The rails with armboards for almost any tonearm is such a clever idea, so easy to use and adjust anytime. In comparison to my ex Technics SP-10 mkII the Luxman PD-444 is superior in my opinion. So this vintage machine is very well engineered by Micro Seiki specialists. This is a truly reference class DD turntable.

chakster I need a tonearm for the SOTA....thoughts....thinking of a Dynavector Ruby or even a Decca...?????

Do you mean a cartridge for your Sota ?
Dynavector 23R Ruby is great, my version was with Micro Ridge stylus. 
I never tried Decca cartridges, they are not for every tonearm! 

@tomic601 for DV 23R you don't need a heavy tonearm, this is not a low compliance cartridge, the best for the money is Victor UA-7045 if we're discussing vintage tonearms. Fidelity-Research FR-64fx. Technics EPA-100. Or maybe those Dynavector tonearms. I have tested my DV23RS MR with Technics tonearms with great result.
