"I'm only doing this once...". I've heard that before. IMO, unless you're an expert, if you want vinyl to be as grief-free as possible, I would stick with a modern turntable, purchased from a dealer who can help you with issues that inevitably arise. I didn't read every post, so I don't know what your budget is, but I can recommend anything from Linn or Basis. If you want to spend less, the Music Hall MMF 5/7 are nice tables, but I wouldn't go any lower. I'm not a big Rega fan, but they are also very good trouble-free tables.
What is the best vintage TT for new audiophile?
After many years of ignoring my vinyl, I have decided to wade back into the audiophile pool. I am looking at the Thorens TD-160 s well as the TD-126 MK III but have also seen a Luxman PD121 and PD272. I'm only doing this once, maybe there is something better out there??? If not, what should I pay for the units above?? Help!
Many thx.
