Turntable Recommendation 15K budget Avid Acutus, Brinkmann, Oracle, Nottingham,,

Hi All,

Im looking for suggestion or any forms of recommendation for a New Turntable,My  buget is from 10-15K. I already have a Tri-Planer Tone arm and just looking to upgrade the table.


Not interested in the Kuzma or VPI, below are the ones i am looking at mostly:

AVID Acutus
Oracle,
Brinkmann
Nottingham
Origin Live
Hanns
Transorotor


Or a Older Gerad, Technics SP-10 Thorens?

Anymore suggestion,

I abandoned Vinyl many years ago in pursuit for the best digital gear. Was extremely disappointed with the MSB Diamond & Analog DAC after owning it for over 18 months i sold them both.

I now have the Playback Design Merlot dac and pleased with it but would like to go back into Vinyl.

Im looking for a very musical presentation, transparent, speed which has a nice midrange bloom but not over the top. Somethign which can last me for a few years at least 5-8 years with out upgrading.

Although I endorse EBM's enthusiasm for the TW Acustic Raven, which I also use, from your list, the only one I would consider is the Avid Acutus (Ref? If it's within budget, but the standard one is also impressive).

Dear Dragon_Vibe,

I feel sick..... ;^) :D :D

I’m not sure I’d want a top class T/T in my bedroom though.

I’d never get to bed! :D

BTW did you know that Vladimir Putin uses one of these (the Acutus I mean, not the bed ;^)


Seriously though, congratulations on a sensational purchase! You’ll probably forget that you even HAVE a bedroom after this :)
