The best vinyl I ever heard was on a vpi classic through ARC electronics and a benz cartridge..... the michell is nice as well .... But I am a digital person so take for what it is worth .....

Looking for a new Turntable and need some advice.
Hello all,
Would be very interested in your thoughts on the Rega P7 or P9, VPI Scoutmaster or Classic, Mitchell Gyro SE Mk II and Origin Live Resolution Mk 2. All very similarly priced and having their own pros & cons.
I have plans to audition the O/L Resolution in the coming weeks and planning to hopefully have a demo of the others pretty soon.
As to the Rega P7 I'm really torn on this one, not sure if the P7 will have more of everything, soundstage, timing, detail, silent blacks than my P25, would be disappointed if it was only marginally better.
Current setup consists of a Rega P25 with the Groovetracer Sub-platter and Acrylic Platter, Pete Riggle VTAF and Grado’s Reference Platinum cartridge. All connected to a McCormack Micro Phono Drive with Platinum upgrades. After hearing the difference between a stock McCormack MPD and the Platinum I knew the table set up was a limiting factor and thus the reason for starting this search for a new table. I’m in no hurry and will be doing as much research as possible before making a final decision on my purchase.
I also have plans to move up in the Grado line to either the Reference Reference or Statement in the near future as the Platinum starts to age (if that makes a difference).
Anyway I would like to Thank Everyone in advance for your constructive comments. Would really like anyone’s thoughts if they went from one brand to another (pro’s and con’s).
