Subs or Turntable?


I’ve long wanted a VPI turntable, and I’m very drawn to the Prime series. 

But the budget keeps being pushed out, and logically I think a pair of subs would make a stronger impact on the sound. Looking at REL t7x, which comes in lower than the TT. 

So subs or TT? Logic or heart? What would you do?

What table are you replacing? What speakers do you have? Why not list the other components including the amplification that you are using?

I would say follow your heart. This is a pursuit of passion. 

Is the table replacing something? Would be great to see your system. If you put photos and id your components under your USerID in Virtual Systems then we could put this all in context. 

Why not deal with both?

After experiencing the low frequency response musical deficiency with a REL I'd forgo the two -6dB@30Hz 10" T7x, 0-180 phase switched sub-bass woofers @ $2600. I'd choose something like two 12" -3dB@18Hz Rythmik L-12 subwoofers with variable phase and direct servo @ $1582 (or $2254 loaded) and put the $1,000. difference towards a new cartridge.
