I would look for a pre owned Michell Gyrodec with the Tecnoarm. A 9/10 rating will get you as close to new with out buying brand new. Your cartridge is going to be the key component in what your going to hear from your table. You could get a used Van Den Hul Frog for around $900. I run this exact setup with great results!
Used turntable & arm combo for under $2500.0
Recommendations for used TT. The more common brands I see for sale are Linn, VPI, and Oracle. Are there more? Possible future upgrades made avaible to TT would be a strong consideration. Need advice on questions to ask and things to be aware of when looking for used TT. I heard some TT are in need of constant tweaking. This is something I like to avoid. Thank-you in advance for your comments.
