Rebuild or new cartridge with my zeta tonearm
Because it was posted after my recommendation for a refurbished Decca, I get all my Deccas worked on by the London designer/builder himself, John Wright. So in this case, the refurbs are good as new.

Pondering to pull the trigger on an AT VM 760SLC
I have a 750 and it is probably enough for your needs and it's $200 cheaper. It is resolving enough to compensate for the speakers! You are overthinking the set up.

Gloria Lynne ‎– I Wish You Love (Sunset 1967)So evocative of the time when the audience sat at dinner tables in fancy casinos. Do they still do that? With the don up front with his girl. Long cigarette holders.

Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band ‎- The Best Of ... (Vanguard ‎1968)I like this. Misses a recommendation due to average sound quality.
