If you get the P3, go straight to an Exact 2. Skip the Elys cartridge.
help choosing a turn table
good evening,
I will be purchasing my first turn table.. it will be for a second system using a Lyngdorf TDA 1120 combined with a pair of monitor audio gold 100 speakers . Budget is preferably < 2k and ideally < $1,500.. music to be played is likely classic rock, 80 s music, maybe some alternative.. want detailed sound that is not fatiguing .. appreciate everyone’s input thanks

I just received this message! This REGA looks like it should fit the bill! : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cQPIHh8tVc What a bargain! The Rega Planar 3 50th Anniversary turntable is a remarkable combination of a Rega Planar 3 with walnut wood finish, add the NEO power supply, add the Reference Belt, and add the Rega Exact phono cartridge all in one package. At only $1695, it’s a bargain and a swift seller. These are only available until December 31st and until stock runs out. There are not many left so if you are interested, it’s better to grab one sooner than later!

I might suggest checking out some semi-auto or auto lift turntables. I have read very good reviews of the new Technics 1500c. I would suggest, however, replacing either the included Ortofon 2M Red with a better cartridge or buy a stylus upgrade such as the 2M Bronze and up. That would put you somewhere between $1500 and $2000. Nothing against Regas, just really don't like manual TT's anymore due to age and laziness. |
@ motown-l The Technics 100c is the same as the Technics 1500c without the built in phono stage. And it is a few hundred dollars less!! https://us.technics.com/products/direct-drive-turntable-sl-100c |
