What to look for in a good turntable???


Ok guy's I sold my record collection many years ago.
The only turntable we had was crap.It was my fathers.

I have herd that if you spend about half of what you spend on a CD player on a phonograph, the phonograph will blow the CDP away.

Well I spent about 1,600. on a used Meridian 508.24.

What do I need to look for in a turntable that will outperform the 508?

My music taste is rock n roll.

I realy don't know what to look for at all.Consider me a blank piece of paper folks.

Does the tonearn make the most important investment?

I'm going to wait a couple days so that everyone who has an opinion on the matter has a chance to voice it.
Oh yea,what Rega table are you guy's talking about?
Is it the Planar3? Or something a little farther up?
