I am sorry, I was a little unclear. I was looking for a possible turntable upgrade. I am also thinking of further upgrades on the Technics.
Upgrade choices
Hello All,
I need some expert opinions on a TT upgrade. I am considering the following:
-Pro Ject RM 9.2 (used)
-JA Michell Technodec
-Origin Live Aurora MKII Turntable (w/Audio Origami modded RB250 arm)
-Clearaudio Concept
-Pro-Ject RM5.1SE Turntable
I want to keep my budget around $1500-$1600. I have two carts that I could use, both with very little use; an Audio Technica 33EV and a Denon Dl-103R. My modest setup of current equipment I will be using this table with is a:
-Custom JWN Tube Amp with 4 Shuguang 6CA7 Treasures and all NOS rectifiers, etc.
-Dared SL2000a Preamp w/Psvane 12AT7's and a Brimar rectifier
-Highly modded Cambridge Audio 640p phono pre
-Technics SL1200 MKII (modded with a Sumiko MMT tonearm, Audioquest cable, Applied Fidelity Gen II bearing, and Isonoe footers)
-Snell Acoustics Type IIE speakers on custom stands
Any input will be greatly appreciated. I just want to be sure that I am making a positive leap forward and not a lateral move over my modded SL1200.
