| Which turntable? Pro-Ject or VPI? Neither, Just buy a used Rega. Every jump is a big improvement in sound. Since the the new NAIA was just released in the US there should be some deals on the lower models. After that, the cartridge and setup are the main thing. Rega and the new... | |

| Seeking Opinions on Nordost Cables This doesn’t work. It’s like you are asking us to test drive a car for you. There are a lot of Nordost dealers. The only way you should be doing this is by borrowing the cables you can afford. It is very system dependent. I would even say it’s ro... | |
| Quick System Building Pop Quiz: Why not upgrade or spend the money on the main system. Instead of selling the used gear start a new system. This is literally how I was able to have a second system. As long as you want or need a second system. That being said I have only been lis... | |
