Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401!

Well, you're bypassing the phono stage, so you're just using the line stage. It's the third tube from the left. 

I have a 401 that is still set up 220 and has the 50hz pully, and 50hz strobe. I've changed 6-8 through the years. Easy. I sometimes swap the top if I find a deal. Been in a box for 15 years. I gave up on Garrards. I love um, but I use to work at a machine shop.. They fixed Sparta, QRK, and Russco platters.. I know I have 5 or 6 left.. I call the Garrard Killers..

They are TWICE as big, and twice the weight easy.. 9-16" tonearms.

I'm doing one out of black oak / red oak with Queen Ann Legs, very different...Matches my speakers with Queen Anns.. Close..:-)

HD, LOL 24/7 365 /  forever.. Just oil and maintain. Mine are all pulls from FM radio stations.. Just rollers and there is a few tricks to get the platter REAL quiet..

750 Fairchild, I had one that was nicked... Actually my all time favorite..

I like TD124 too, I have a couple.. For a smaller footprint, I think its pretty good also..

Regards

Still here and following the thread.  Fairly sure I will do the 301 but will likely pair my Harbeths with a pair of REL S812s first.  
Likely starting a new job in the new year. Once over that hurdle I will reach out to Chris at Woodsong and have him build a 301 for me.  
Since I still seem to have people’s attention, what phono pre-amp do you recommend?   Chris recommended something to me (I can’t recall) and I think he is trying to get a rep deal for them.  I currently have a Vincent Pho-701.  I’ve already rolled the tube (per counsel multiple places including Upscale Audio).   I’m happy with it but Chris at Woodsong swore blindly about the one he recommended.  What say you?

@gunners01 Allnic H1201? 

@noromance 
yea, that may well be what chris suggested but can’t say for certain.  What I can say is that a) sounds familiar and b) that was about the price point.  
Just read reviews on it and nothing but superlatives.  
Have one?  More superlatives?
