| So I replaced the original Garrard 401 mat with an EP Forgot about the thread. I did some more tests and am now staying with the 10" EP as the best compromise. | |
| Fidelity Research FR14 as good Sonically as FR64 or Jelco750? The "next step up from a Jelco" is the new Jelco 850/950 at around $1000-$1400 depending on model/9-12". | |
| Is a GREAT turntable under $2000 possible??? $2k? Maybe not off the shelf but you can certainly do what I did. Source a clean Garrard 401 for about $800.

| Analog playback on computer. Analog > ADC > DAC ≠ analog. | |
| HD Vinyl - The Future is Here Take digital out of the process. I have 50s - 80s analogue LPs and the sound is fantastic. Crystal clear (even through the crackles). I have been lucky to get a cache of immaculate jazz and blues LPs from a collector. Almost all my digital recordi... | |

| Jelco SA-750D or Rega RB250 @rotarius I got the Ammonite collar and it is well built and works well. It only needs one set-screw as the internal shape of the cylinder grips the shaft on 2 other points. I did not notice any sonic change after fitting. VTA adjustments feel mor... |
