Planning to go analog


Considering two systems:

a) Teres 255 Turntable with Graham 2.2 tonearm.
b) SME 10/2 or SME 20/2 with IV.Vi tonearm

Anyone offer any comparisons between these two?

Also, don't have a clue about cartridges so any suggestions greatfully appreciated.

I do not know these tables well enough to comment, but if you want the least fussy, best tracking, most neutral MC cartridge on the market, I recommend the Benz-Micro Ruby 2. It works well with almost any table. By the way, a general comment regarding turntables. There are many new rigs in the marketplace. I have heard many of them. Many will not be around in 5-10 years. I think you should consider manufacturers who will be here should you need them. ie Welltempered (Transparent Cable), VPI, SME, Nottingham, Basis. Stay away from the exotics if you can.
