First Turntable Advice

Aubadge, keep in mind that the "turntable" consists of three relatively independent sections; rotating disc, tonearm and phono cartridge. Each of these components contributes to the quality of the sound of the "turntable".

Interestingly, I own both the RP6 and the Scout 1.1, and love them both for different reasons. I was also getting back into vinyl. Now that's all I want to listen to. Bought the Rp6 with Exact cartridge installed at the factory. Read all the reviews and it is a little like a sports car, but the final decision was made because of the Rega Wall Mount. I had some space constraints and that solved my problem. Made a shelf and mount for the Rega( which is light). The wall mount is attached to it and the speed controller and a Rega phono stage are conveniently on the shelf.

The Scout 1.1 is part of my other system. Cartridge is Ortofon 2M Black. Both systems sound terrific but a tad different. Different amp, Different speakers, different rooms? Who cares?

Take a look at my Virtual Systems. But don't worry you'll be ecstatic with either.

Based on what you're looking for "easy to use/set up" the RP36/Exact would be the way to go, set it and forget it.

Lighter, smaller footprint, factory installed cart, no need for VTA adjustment, almost plug and play!

FYI, all Rega TTs greatly benefit from isolation like a Rega Wall Mount or Sand Box.

Like many have said, there is no wrong or right, just a matter of preference in taste and looks.
