Ultimate $10K home office system for vinyl?


Looking for some advice/inspiration... If you had a $10K (USD) budget for a home office/listening room, which turntable/amps/speakers would you buy?  

Assume that the system will only be used for vinyl records - i.e. no CD player, radio etc. - just the best bang for buck vinyl-only system for $10K.

I "surmise" you didn't understand the question, nay, the purpose of an online forum such as this.  At no point did I ask anyone for "intensive analysis". I simply asked how you and others who know more than I do, might spend $10K for a small room to play records. I was not asking for tax advice or a medical opinion.

A true expert would have no problem whatsoever framing this in understandable terms for a curious beginner.  

 

 

I disagree. 10k is a lot of money so to get an honest answer one has to do much evaluation and research. That’s what most audiophiles do to maximize the sonics on a limited budget. Often these cost/benefit decision are mentally taxing. I’m assuming you want a serious honest answer, otherwise it’s easy to come up with a 10k system to list. Not sure why you assume it’s easy unless you have deep pockets and money isn’t an issue. For the rest of us we put serious brainpower to stretch our money.

If your asking as a beginner with 10k on how to construct a system that is satisfying for you? - that’s a different question.  We’d then help you find components that would suit your sonic preferences within your budget.

Apologies of my previous post was too strong. Perhaps you didn’t realize that a serious answer was a lot of work. I really hate pointless busywork. Also, for you our preferences are not relevant when compared to your preferences. Only you can decide what you like.

Threads like this can be fun. If it were me I would consider the system as 6 components, Table, arrm, cartirdge, phonostage, Integrated amplifier, and speakers. The 1st 4 could take up half the budget for an office setup. Also isolation of the TT needs be factored in.
