They are all fine tables....I would choose the VPI because of its great customer service and the belief the company will be there for as long as I would need them.
Technics 1200g vs Rega rp8, VPI aries, avenger, Basis 2000, Linn LP12 etc. Can it compete?
I am thinking of upgrading my Turntable in the next few months. It has been a long journey as believe it or not, the VPI scout really is a great table and has kept me satisfied for a long time. However, I am looking for my last table. Has anyone had experience with the new Technics 1200g? is it really as good as the best from VPI, Basis, SME, Feikert, etc. It has intrigued my interest and from what I see it looks like it can easily hold its own against some of the best. What headshells, mats, record clamps work best? Can you use a clamp with this table? Looking forward to your replies.
