Best turntable/cartridge/phono preamp combo

I like the Rega P3, Elys 2, and Fono preamp. Great upgradeability and ain't half bad to start with.

The Project tonearm on the MMF-7 will not track the Shelter to its' full potential. Stick with the factory supplied Goldring if you go with the MMF-7. Anything more expensive is basically a waste of money.

Good luck.

Audiofell: Absolutely untrue. The Shelter tracks perfectly and made a huge improvment to the table's performance.

And, my opinion is based on actual experience as an owner and long time vinyl listener, is yours?

Yessir I owned an MMF-7. The tonearm is basically entry level.

The Shelter may sound better than the Goldring but its' full potential is not being realized in that arm.
That's a fact; you'll understand more clearly when you upgrade.

Thank you.
