For 5K you could get a Linn LP12, Ittok, Shelter 901 or maybe a 90X and have money left over and a fantastic sounding vinyl rig. In fact, you could probably have two LP12s, two Ittoks, a Shelter 901 and one other cartridge if you really need two tone arms. Probably better to have one setup and add an ARC PH5.
What are the $5000 options
for a table, something versatile (dual arms) and lasting? I just sold a Scout; I still own a Denon DP60L; and I have owned a minor Rega and Clearaudio. I would most likely go used this time--but that ain’t written in stone.
My monoblocks are Cary SLM-100s with Solen teflon coupling and bypass capacitors--elsewhere Mundorf Supremes. The signal resistors are mix of TX2575 or wirewounds. The pre is a similarly modified Cary SLP-98, save for the Silver/Gold and Oil coupling caps. Thus, the sound is big, wide, deep and clear. I use an ASR Mini Basis Exclusive and a modified Bottlehead Seduction. The speakers are ProAc D28. The room is odd and malevolent. Music is eclectic.
I'm thinking lean and detailed, but all help will be welcomed.
