Turntable


So in our never ending quest of upgrades i am looking to get into vinyl again.my last turntable was a technics over 35 years ago. This is my current equipment.Aragon aurum preamp Aragon palladium monoblocks nordost spm interconects and speaker wire.Focal electras 920. Digital playback is a Yba integre cd player. Room is about 12x27 . Budget would be 2500 to 3000. Dollares. More importantly having little knowledge on setting up a turntable i want to buy new and from a local brick and mortar dealer. So here are the choices.Mofi , pro ject, rega ,marantz and denon.

Asw, bad in joke I suppose. Up here in New England we have been led to believe that Hurricane Maria sent you back to the stone age because main land USA did nothing to help you. (political blamesmanship)
The rags have you living in caves eating your children. 
SOTA makes a fabulous turntable but they don't come into there own until you get to the Sapphire which I think is more than you intended to spend. The lesser SOTAs are fine particularly if you like wood over plastic but they are nothing extraordinary. Get a Sapphire and put a Kuzma 4 point 9 on it and you will be happy forever. Otherwise I think the MoFi table is the best value.

Asw,  the MoFi deck is fine. Great Deck for the money.
dweller, I suspect you could use the exercise. I lift at my gym twice a week just to make sure I’ll be able to lift my tone arm.
