Which TT for my system?


Hello folks,

I have assembled a pretty decent system and the final piece being purchased is the Table. I am hoping for some good opinions based on experience and or ownership. My budget is $2200.00 including tone arm. So far I am looking at Clearaudio Champion LMTD and the VPI Scout 2. My system is Martin logan Vantage speakers and DK Design MKIII AMP, I will be using a MM cartridge. I know there many good tables in this range and looking for some opinions. Thank you all in advance.

I loved my Clearaudio Performance, and then tried several other tables, including VPI Aries and Scoutmaster, didn't like either.

Something made me buy the VPI Classic though, I guess I was swayed by all of the great reviews, and it is the best table I have ever owned regardless of price. It's $300 over your budget, but I don't use an isolation platform, speed controller (sold it) or anything else to make it sound great. Very little tweaking. I do have a preriphery ring, but I think everyone should have one.
