Ok, thanks for all the recommendations. My current 'table is the Technics 1210M5G and I might want to upgrade in the future. That RM 9.2 looks good, so I'll see if I can get an audition around here...I just wanted to make sure the quality was up to snuff. |
Thanks Dayglow for your input. That sounds good. And thanks Kiko65 for the advice. I will take all of this into consideration. Right now, I'm content with the Technics, but there has to be better, true? Another brand I've been eyeing is Clearaudio, but that is more expensive. Worth it? |
Cool, and I forgot about Basis and SME...they're pretty big players, so there's more to add in the pot! lol. |
I see Banerjba, I figured that much... |
How about the quality of the tonearms? Good, mediocre, or bad? |
Ok, thanks Dayglow. Definitely something to consider... |
Thanks again, Dayglow. I'm open to all suggestions really. I can basically afford the $2500. Matter of fact, even double that, but is it worth going into that price range? My Technics + cart cost me all of around $900, and it sounds pretty sweet to me, lol. |
Ok, thanks again. Much appreciated. There's so many options in the $2500-$6k range, that it's a bit confusing to me. You have Avid, Clearaudio, Luxman, Nottingham, SME?, Transrotor, etc.
I personally like the Luxman out of those at the moment. It has the functionality of my Technics with better build and is belt drive.
I could change my mind, which I usually do, haha.
My phono stage is internal in the Bryston BP6 preamp. Bryston says it's broadcast quality... |
Ok, thanks Jperry, I appreciate that. |
Ok, cool. What did you like about it, per se. |
Ohnofiasco: Sounds good. Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated.
Kiko65: Thanks for the recommendations. I will take those into consideration. Which arm(s) would you recommend for those? |
Well, thank you very much Kiko65, I appreciate your words here. All of those units sound good to me. I'm willing to bet it's just a matter of strengths and weaknesses, and considering what I'm looking for sound wise. Happy listening to you too... |
I see. Thanks again. Yes, long live vinyl! |
Ok, cool guys. Food for thought there...:D |
Hmm...doesn't sound too swift. However, I'm looking at the higher end models, so maybe less problems? The other turntables that I fancy at the moment are the Luxman PD-171 and the Clearaudio Ovation. |
Thorens never crossed my mind, so thanks for that. I would say, just by looking at their site, probably, but not 100 sure.
Thanks for the report, PKelly1504. |
No more than $6k, really. By the way, I forgot about the VPI Classic 3. That's another 1 I'm currently looking at. |
Ok, cool, Kiko65, thanks again for the recommendations! |
