phono stage and cartridge value
Hi, my first ever thread started on audiogon.I have decided to get out my old LP collection.To that end.....
I am an old guy with some old equipment and limited expendable $. I am in need of a cartridge and all associated sound stage, etc for the analog side of things.
I have;
1. A VPI TNT 3.5 turntable system
2. A SAEC WE-317s arm that I am taking off of my old "clockwork orange" turntable.
3. B&W speakers
4. Quick silver mono amps
5 Mark levenson preamp, CD player, etc
Looking for a recomendation on the cartridge and stage equipment. I would like good value [so I like looking for used components, just do not kbnow which ones]. My hearing is not the best so at a certain point the overly expensive equipment, with the goal of keeping up with the neighbors, is not germain. Dollars I would like to spend is 1,500 or so.
TX, for the help
