Whichever Turntable you choose please consider the ORTOFON BLACK LVB 250. I have about 30 LPs , Linn Sondek LP 12 and upgraded from Bronze to Black LVB 250.
Techniques 1200 g versus 1200 GR2 for small vinyl collection
My current system is luxman 595 class amp, Moon 891 amp, and focal sopra n1 speakers.
I have a small vinyl collection. Probably about 20 vinyls. I don't see myself buying love vinyls cuz I'm mostly just streaming. I want to get a techniques turntable because they remind me of the turntable my family used to have.
I'm looking at the techniques SL 1200 GR2 or the SL1200 g. I would get the ortofon black cartridge.
To save money I'm thinking about the GR2. Would I regret it and wish I got the SL1200 later? Would it be silly to buy the 1200 g when I only have 20 vinyls and I do mostly streaming?

@porchlight1 Thank you.... I do not have the 891 yet, I am trying to save up for it but keep getting hit with life bills My speakers are Focal Sopra N1 On the week days I play the Moon 861 amp with the Yamaha Rn-2000a streamer/preamp. I know... bad combo but a tie me over. On the weekends I play the Luxman 595 Class a integrated amp with the Eversolo A10 stream. I enjoy this alot. In fact, I feel like I could live with just this amp alone in life. But, I get used to the same sound and that is why I need a seperate 2nd system to keep my ears refreshed. It is where I would be using the turntable until I get enogh money for the 891 streamer/preamp Moon.

I also use variety to help keep engaged: variety of carts including SPUs, a SS system focusing on transparency and lower noise floor, a tube system to explore tube midrange magic starting with SETs, and both analog and digital audio chains. |
