A Rega P10 v Garrard 401? Dare I suggest that something is seriously wrong with the whole Rega approach if this is remotely a contest. A 2019 design v one from 45/55 years ago? It shouldn't really be a contest, or should it? My dad had a low level Garrard back in the late 70s and it was a lovely deck indeed. Still, I would like to think that a P10 turntable is very near the state of the art sonically today given its minimalist design. |
noromance, You know I can remember a time when some (most?) of the British audio press used to lambast decks such as the Garrards and the Technics. It was all Rega/Linn back then in the late 70s/80s. It’s quite heart-warming to see how things eventually turned out. I'll always remain suspicious of reviewers who generally do more far harm than good. Their burying of MiniDisc, a fabulous format, was just another crime on their money grubbing hands. |
