Nice system!....Cronus and LS50s are a fun combo.
You could find a preowned VPI Scout at that price point. I also have quite a few customers running Rega P3/P6 with a Cronus.
Top turntables under $2k
Hi there,
I've upgraded almost everything in my system save for my turntable (debut carbon dc with 2m blue). I have kef ls50 metas (sometimes I rotate my r300's in there as well) and a Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum II with built in MM phono stage. I've been looking at VPI, Clearaudio, MoFi and Technics but can't quite figure out which direction to go that offers good synergy. Any thoughts?

Technics SP15, 3 speeds, S arm allows removable headshells https://www.georgemeyer-av.com/technics-sp-15-direct-drive-turntable/?refsource=hifishark see technics specs, these can compete with nearly any other model, new or old. https://vintagetechnics.audio/turntables.php I bought one, gave it to my friend, recently installed their B500 base on it which is awesome and allows easy changing arms to either straight fixed cartridge or S arm with removable headshell. Loosen ’lock’, slide arm out, slide other arm in, tighten ’Lock’. Contacts are integral to the arm/base. ....................................... base with straight arm is shown on this VPI VPI is over your budget, but seller says make offer. I am near Tom's River, if you were seriously interested, I could drive down and check it out, see it operate, get answers to any questions you may have. |
