Vlad has this one, I bought my TT81 from him, I highly recommend him. My friend bought a Micro Seiki 505 arm from him, I installed it on his Luxman PD444, it's terrific.

Newbie turntable Upgrade
So I broke my cardinal rule about not going down the Vinyl Rabbit-hole, now this Alice-in-Wonderland owns a Fluance RT85, 4,count them, FOUR phonostages (Parasound XRM, Darlington Labs, Sutherland , and a Waxwing to feed my dac) Ortofon 2M Blue, and Bronze, and a Denon DL-110 cartridge along with a bunch of decent jazz and classic rock lp's. Now the need to upgrade the turntable has risen. Looking for suggestions that doesn't exceed $2K usd.
I value your opinions.
If you’re still under $2,000 range I liked the MoFi UltraDeck But… Then get the funds together and pick yourself up a nice Dr. Feichert Volare with Origin Live arm, or a VPI Prime or Prime X table. In my opinion Regas are great but lack in ability to fine tune VTA. They work best with Rega cartridges.

I definitely agree with @audphile1 Sell all your stuff and buy one of each... a much better phono stage and table. you will make bigger jump and be happier longer. |
