Hey Keeny T. Just getting back into vinyl & live in Tampa. Where's the store in St. Pete that has all of the LPs
VPI Scout vs. Marantz TT-15
I've decided to put together a vinyl setup for the first time since I was a kid. I'm starting completely from scratch and will need table/arm, cart and phono-pre, and related accessories. My budget is about $2k. I had originally planned to build around a VPI Scout and pick up everything used, but then stumbled across the attached package from MusicDirect that features a Marantz table/arm/cart from Clearaudio, a Simaudio phono pre and a bunch of the accessories I will need.

There's also a few deals out there on B-stock Scouts for about $1400. Has anyone been able to compare the Scout and the Marantz. I can probably arrange to audition the Scout, but will likely be unable to hear the Marantz.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
