Turntable Quandry

I am currently using a great condition Technics SL-1410mk2 as my turntable with an ortofon black cart. The other components are Luxman L507-z integrated amp and Manley Chinook SE  phono stage. I also use a D07-x sacd/dac and Hifi Rose RS130 streamer. Im trying to match the level of gear with a new turntable. I listen to 30% vinyl. Or should I just keep the Technics and upgrade cabling etc.

Thanks!

I’m with Yogiboy.  I have a new 1200 and while I don’t have a vintage table to compare, I suspect there are a lot of improvements compared to 1979, not to mention the newer motor

I just picked up the new P8 with Apheta 3 cart and it blows away my 20K digital setup. All my albums sound incredible and musical like never before. 4K total

Perhaps try the LBV 250 stylus on your Black?
