VPI Scout/JMW-9 or Nott. Horizon/Expressimo RB250?


Hi,

Please, help me to choose TT/arm combo?
Here are my options:

1. VPI Scout/JMW-9 With Dynavector 20XH cartridge (H).

2. VPI Scout upgraded with a new 300 RPM motor, the new nitrile one piece belt, and a TNT-4 platter and bearing. Comes with JMW 9 tonearm.

3. Nottingham Horizon TT with Expressimo RB250 Rega Tonearm.

They are all around $1200. I already have Shelter 501 MKII.

Option #1: sell Dynavector and my Shelter and buy ZYX R100L or H.
Option #2: sell my Shelter to buy ZYX.
Option#3: buy Nott. Horiz. and put my Shelter on it.

Could you, please, share your experience with these TT(s)/arm(s)? What are the pros and cons of these rigs?

Thank you,
D.

Thank you Oz. I did get Interspace. What's your experience with different mats? Also, I know Nott. doesn't recommend to use record clamp, have you ever tried one and was it good, bad ..?
Thanks again.
Hey Oz, what are you using under your table? Could you share your experience in this field? Any recommendations?
