Forgive my ignorance. Now to start over. . . .

I suppose I got a little excited about the reviews of the VPI Traveler and didn't realize that they're out of production and now darn near impossible to find. The post regarding this vs a Clearaudio Concept has been deleted. It seems that the Traveler hit the sweet spot for me as far as performance vs price. 

Sticking with VPI, it's the Cliffwood (ehh), the Player (I don't need a phono pre and don't want the headphone amp), and then it seems a pretty big step to the Prime Scout (I'd feel shameful spending less than a grand on a cartridge for). 

So, if you can find it in your heart to forgive my ignorance of the facts surrounding availability of the Traveler, I would appreciate suggestions for turntables in the $1500 to $2000 range.

If you can up your game a little and negotiate with a seller, a higher performing used table is the way to go. Maximum bang for the buck.

Since youre considering VPI, I would check this out. This is good to go with a decent phonostage...done.

Ive used a Classic for several trouble free years.
