Reag P-5 with Ortofon 2M Bronze...???


Please refer to my "sytem" to see what I now use for my musical enjoyment. Everything works together beautifully to create a realistic soundstage, precise imaging, instrumental truth of timbre, and all-around listening pleasure. Most of my vinyl collection is small ensemble jazz (Miles, Rollins, Brubeck, Coltrane, Monk, all the Blue Note guys, MJQ, Ellington, Ella, etc, etc.) and the classic rock from my college days (Dead, Allmans, Dylan, CSNY, Joni, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, etc.) Most of my listening, these days, is the jazz stuff.

It's now time to say goodbye to my NAD 533 set-up, and upgrade my analog front end. The Rega P-5 seems like a great table for my Rogue and Vandersteens, and I'm thinking of the Ortofon 2M Bronze......I want to stay with the MM phono stage in my Cronus. My budget is $ 1500 - 1800 total. What do you guys think ?? Other ideas ?? Thanks.

You might want to look at the Marantz TT15. This table is made by Clearaudio and is an upgraded version of their Emotion TT. AT $1595 list including a really good Clearaudio cartridge I can't see how you could go wrong. My son has one and it sounds almost as good as the Clearaudio Performance turntable.

Good Luck!
