Turntable Suggestions


I'm looking for my first table and need suggestions.
Budget is under $2,000 but I honestly don't know what
level table would be under or overkill in my current
system,i.e. how good is the phono stage in my YBA? I
would like to keep it simple, no outboard stage. I'm
considering the new Marantz with cartridge for $1,600 or
a VPI Scout.
Love to hear any suggestions or thoughts.
Thanks,

Music Hall MM5 or MM7 are good options. I have an MM7 and am very happy with it.

Attilasimon,

Are you including the cost of the Tonearm and Cartridge in your budget of under $ 2,000.00 for a Turntable ?

At your price range VPI scout is the best.Dont get close to music hall it is garbage compared with VPI. JT
My budget is not tight at $2,000.
I felt this was around what I wanted to spend as well as
being a good balance with the level of the rest of my system.Like I said, I'm really not sure how good my YBA
phono is and I have little idea of where the cost/performance ratio lies with turntables.
Thanks,
Attila
