Sony PS-X9

I'm close to making a purchase of mentioned TT. Price is right at $13K. Price wise, could I buy a better TT ??

Thanks in advance,

Jose

The criteria is as follows; sound, rarity and looks. I want a "statement" piece, with the looks and sound to match. I thought of a Technique Sp 10 mk3, and a few others mentioned, however, they are all readily available... I prefer to buy "preowned", as it allows me greater options and no mark up.. Jose
