| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks @frogman. I listened to both again and while acknowledging the Sony has more initial bite, things quickly fall apart when things get going. The Signet also gives an initial perception - that of being a little muddy and gray... but then the ... | |
| Can you live with your current speaker until you die? Quad ESL57 (sans grilles). Transparent like I have yet to hear in any other speaker. And relatively inexpensive. | |
| starting with the PLX500 (have to!), possibilities with pre/cart? What cartridge is on it now? Can't go wrong with a Nagaoka MP110. Â | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Lost long post.Long story short.Sony just plays it, Signet tells the whole story. Better bass, drive, clarity, delineation, and purpose. | |

| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD My best recordings (on vinyl) were bought for $1-$10. 50-70s jazz and blues, many live. Columbia, Red RCA etc. The Tidal versions do not hold a candle to many of them, if you can even get them. | |
| Questions to ask as I shop for a tonearm? @dorkwad TFT is back on sale apparently.  I think it may be too much for the OP to deal with.@elizabeth The OP inherited the table and it's pretty decent except it comes with weak Rega 250 arm which s/he wants to change out. | |
| High end Dual @donvito Yes, but where are the suspension "pods?" |
