"Or hadn’t you noticed support for " no I have not, I feel the pro-Technics comments are a lot more vehement as if they know the truth like no one else. They are also more condescending about other brands.
Best turntable under $4000
I am looking to take the next step in my analog journey. I currently am using a Fluance RT85 with ortofon 2m blue. I have a Rogue Audio cronus magnum iii. I am running them with Kef 104/2 's. Fluance seems to get alot of hate on here. I was considering a cartridge upgrade but I am hesitant to upgrade more then the cost of the table. I don't hear much background noise and like the sound. I guess I am wondering if I don't know I hear noise because I have not heard a turntable that eliminates that noise? When I went from my Onkyo to my Rogue Sphinx iii I realized I had been missing a whole lot of sound. Then I ditched my rebuilt EPI M150's and heard hidden instruments in tracks I have listened to for years. I am looking for that in a turntable upgrade. Apperance is important. I have interest in the following:
Clear Audio Concept Wood w/ maestro v2
Mofi fender precisiondeck w/ mastertracker
Stretching my budget is:
Dr. Feikert Volare no cartridge
Gold Note Pianosa no cartridge
These take me out of my budget once I get a cartridge
Any other reccomendations
I will miss the autostart function for those buzzed listening nights. I would like the 4k to include a cartridge. Any opinions are welcome. Anyone think I should say screw the "rules" and get an Ortofon black?
Thank you in advance

@whart, yes it does. It is modeled after the original thorens 150. Great reviews, I think I’m grabbing one. Really don’t need it, as I already own the Avid ingenium, Music Hall 7.3, and a Technics mk7, not to mention a fully auto thorens td240-2, and a vintage Lenco L90. My Technics mk7 is a pretty nice turntable for the money, and fun to use. I pretty much got it for half price, so I mean to me it was a steal. I got a shure m97xe on it with the stabilizer brush, pretty cool and retro looking. That Shure is going for outrageous money nowadays on ebay and the like. |
