Vintage Turntables compared to modern?


Hi wondering how many Audiogoners have drifted away from more modern TT designs and found bliss with older models such as Sony's,Kenwoods,Micros,Yamahas and others,and have you found better built along with sound?

I really like my Garrard 301..... I had a nice VPI Aries before this and have compared it in my system to a couple of others in the 3-6k range - I have always preferred my Garrard. I would really like to hear it up against some of the pricier stuff (i.e. Raven AC, GPA Monaco, etc.). It's most definitely a bit noisier, but it is also very musical and has a great sense of drama and flow that others have not matched.

OTOH, I would like to totally max the Garrard out (almost there now) with a Shindo platter/ bearing and a good PS.
