Which turntable?


Hi all,

after several years of keep trying CDs I decided that still the best sound comes from LPs on a turntable. And now I want to buy one, nut I dont know what. My budget is quit limited and I dont know if I should buy used one or a new one. After studying the market I came to chose from:
- New Pro-Ject 1.2 Comfort
- New Rega P2
- Used Pro-Ject RPM 6
- Used Pro-Ject 6.9 or
- Used Pro-Ject 2 Xperience

Now, from your experience, to which one should I go?

Thank you very much

Cheers

Project 1.2 has been discontinued. The replacement is the 1 xpression. It has a much better tonearm made of carbon fiber and better tonearm bearings. It is supposed to be quite an improvement over the 1.2 which was a great budget table. It lists for $430.

I would suggest this table with an upgrade path available as your collection grows. You can add a speed box $100, a better cartridge, better phono stage and finally upgrade the table itself. I hear it is more capable than other budget tables in taking an upgraded cartridge.
