I'm going to order the Technics 1500c. If I want to update the phono, the TT has a set of phono outs. The headshells are removable, thus different cartridges are easier (mono, 78, etc). If I get deeper into vinyl, I can keep this unit just for 78's and buy a higher end main TT and pre amp later. This TT is nothing like the old 1980's entry Technics TT's that were really no different than the other brands cheap/basic offerings. This TT will hold good value like the 1200GR series.
Turntable for a Newbie!
Folks,
I am seeking recommendations for a TT under $1500.00. What are the best TT’s currently available, new or used in this range. Nothing tedious, a simple plug n play TT after the initial setup will do.
The goal here is to experience Vinyl and not build extensive library. My prime source of listening still be digital playback. If I like what I hear and able to sustain the ‘routine’ I may look into upgrading my existing TT / Cartridge down the road.
A google search of best TT’s under $1500 lead me to bunch of Audio-Technica turntables and Marantz TT-15S1.
The TT will be played through Shindo’s Monbrison preamp which I believe has a decent phonostage.
Thank you for your suggestions.
