Is the Scoutmaster with JMW memorual arm and a Hana SL a bad table or not? Preferences aside. Will this table blow away my Project debut carbon?
Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS.
Should I pursue analog? Invest maybe 3 or 4 grand in a table and start buying records? Some stuff sounds really good on Vinyl but it's an expensive endeavor and NEW records aren't cheap. Plus thos pops and noise and a lot of setup required. Love the vintage aspect of it. Some records sound truly amazing on a really good table and cartridge. Take the plunge? Or buy a better DAC and dont look back!!! Lol.

@geoffkait , you just couldn't help the bankruptcy reference could you?Pretty sure GK was not just referring to bankruptcy....😉😉 |
I think that all this stuff just makes things more complicated. If you want to try analog, get some simple, turnkey table like a Music Hall 7.1 or whatever the final iteration is and play some records. It comes with a decent arm and MM cartridge and it's good enough to let you know whether you want to continue with something better in the future. I did it with a Music Hall 5.1. I thought it sounded really good and I later upgraded the table after I decided to pursue analog. If you don't like it, you can sell it for a few hundred loss and move on. |
