Thanks so much for the kind comments. My table is a little different as it is the P8. I am not sure if it sounds any better than the RP8 but I like the cool to me looks of the new model :)
Actually, my goal of buying was to choose a good quality table that is the simplest to set up and the closest to plug and play while hopefully still being good enough. Also, a cart made to go with the table and already mounted and set up and ready to go to keep me from messing it up..
My other foray into vinyl went no where. I bought what I found hard to set up and fine tune set up (for me at least and never got it to sound good). Never heard any of that magic everyone writes about. My Bricasti was so much better and I just dumped the vinyl system.
I had:
Analogue: Turntable: VPI Aries Limited Edition 3D,
Tonearm: 10.5 Inch Printed 3D Arm,
Cartridge: Denon DL-S1,
Step Up Transformer: Bob’s Device Cinemag 1131,
Phonostage: Mark Levinson No.326s Preamplifer with Phono,
This is some decent gear but never could get it set up right. Had a vinyl guru come over and work on it for hours. So frustrated I thought I would try again with a much simpler system that hopefully sounds nice.
I don't know if my new set up will be better than my digital but my hope is that it is good enough to make me want to listen.
Honestly, I think something was definitely wrong with my last try at vinyl.
The last time on a scale of 1 through 10 it went like this.
My Bricasti Digital System 8/10
Analogue 2/10
My digital system is good but not that good. I have heard really good vinyl at dealers and thought my system sounds nothing like that.
I heard a Rega RP6 with Exact 2 at a dealer that was a 1,000 time better than my set up above. I said then ok let me try some decent Rega gear that is made so someone like me can't mess it up.
Heck, if my system sounded like that RP6/Exact 2 then I would be psyched and why not? I bought better gear so this time i hope I can get some decent sound. I am really looking forward to it.
