Immedia RPM 2 vs Clear Audio Emotion cmb

Hi everyone. So I have a chance to pick up a Immedia RPM 2 table with the upgraded arm board and rpm 2 uni pivot tonearm, how would this table compare to something modern like a clearaudio emotion cmb with a satisfy tonearm ? I can basically get the Immedia for trade, but I am worried about its age. Thanks for any advice you could give me, Chris

It's been some years since I last used the RPM 2 turntable and arm. At the time my impression was that the arm was a better performer than the Triplanar or Graham of the day (Graham 2.2), but was somewhat more demanding to set up. Based on what I have heard from the Emotion and Satisfy, I am confident that the Immedia can offer a higher level of performance.

OTOH, I fully agree that installing or replacing the belt on the RPM-2 is a PITB.
