I'd second the Rega model 3. It's the quintessential step-up from those direct drive type 70's tables. When I first heard a Rega P-3 in 1986 compared to a Denon d.d. table and cart, the difference was night and day audible. I was sold and kept that table into 2000.
TT upgrade advice?
Hello. I am looking for some advice about my current turntable. Right now I have a Pioneer PL-514 table with a Shure M97xe cart. I got it from a friend whose father has been storing it for many years. I took it apart, cleaned & lubed, set it all up & it sounds awesome. I'm officially hooked on vinyl.
Problem is though, I know vinyl can sound better. So my question is, if i only had $800-1000 to spend on a table/cart/arm, what would be ideal for that price range? Upgrade the cart & arm on my current table or start with a new one altogether?
The rest of my system is a Jolida 502B integrated amp, Jolida JD9 phono, & Klipsch RF52 speakers. Thanks for your input & advice!
