The turntable that is most expensive is the best at least that what the manufacture thinks. Happy spinning
Which turntable is better?
I am considering my first turntable and having difficulty deciding between Technics 1500C, Audio Technica LP8X, Music Hall Stealth, Mofi Ultradeck or Rega Planer 6. My budget is 2K to 2.5K. I understand all the diferences in these tables as far as belt drive versus direct drive and semi automatic functions etc. but wanted to know from others experiences with these? I will probably upgrade cartridge from what is supplied. I don't have to have built in phono stage as my integrated, Unison Research Unico Due has one onboard.

Many Rega arm’s are NOT height adjustable (are any height adjustable?) Many Rega Cartridges are only 14mm high, thus using on other TT’s will require lowering that TT’s arm as 17mm cartridge height is common/average, some are 21mm h. ND5 is elliptical on aluminum ND7 is fine line on aluminum ND9 is fine line on boron, comes on Rega PL8, it’s manual does not mention arm height, and the cartridge specs do not give dimensions but "Nd9 is not compatible with non-Rega tonearms due to its 3-point mounting system" The AT745x microline on boron is $330, ND9 is over $800. usd. Anyone know the channel separation and channel balance specs of Rega Cartridges? Post a link please. Thanks |
@robertq Avoid vintage turntables(>20 years old) advances in technology has made most obsolete, unless you relish in repairs/tinkering or nostalgia. |
