VPI Scout/JMW-9 or Nott. Horizon/Expressimo RB250?
Hi,
Please, help me to choose TT/arm combo?
Here are my options:
1. VPI Scout/JMW-9 With Dynavector 20XH cartridge (H).
2. VPI Scout upgraded with a new 300 RPM motor, the new nitrile one piece belt, and a TNT-4 platter and bearing. Comes with JMW 9 tonearm.
3. Nottingham Horizon TT with Expressimo RB250 Rega Tonearm.
They are all around $1200. I already have Shelter 501 MKII.
Option #1: sell Dynavector and my Shelter and buy ZYX R100L or H.
Option #2: sell my Shelter to buy ZYX.
Option#3: buy Nott. Horiz. and put my Shelter on it.
Could you, please, share your experience with these TT(s)/arm(s)? What are the pros and cons of these rigs?
Thank you,
D.
