Looking for more advice on purchasing a new turntable.

I love that Michell Gyro Dec !    It not only has the superb musicality...It's a "Looker"... 

I would think about upgrading your loudspeakers. Perhaps 3.7s so you can get the good tweeter.

How about a new Rega P8 (or a lightly used Rega P10) with an Apheta 3 cartridge? The Rega cartridges have the no-fuss three point attachment

It’s a great tt, no messing with removable headshells or multiple tone arms.

I never quite bought into why you need multiple tone arms to use multiple cartridges, nor do I play mono records, but that’s just me.

That personal choice aside, the more stuff you get (multiple tonearms, and cartridges etc.) the more diluted each part gets for the $$ you are willing to spend.

I’d rather have ONE solid tt that doesn’t need fussing and ONE cartridge so I am not diluting my $$ on a bunch of different parts.

+1 for the Dr Feikert Volare, it could be your end game table once you upgrade the arm down the road. 

If you have a PL PS, I assume you have a current TT. What is it? Anything you like/dislike about it? That could help narrowing down the discussion. Given that you have all PL, I assume you are an upscale customer, and you get some loyalty discounts if you buy a TT from them.

I had a VPI super prime scout with ADS with a SoundSmith Zephyr MIMC* cart. With many VPIs, to change from 33 to 45 you have to manually change the belt. Is that OK or a no-go? With ADS, you can do that on the box, but on my unit there was an eight second delay before unit spun up to 45, which I found very annoying. The VTA adjustment I hardly ever used and barely heard a difference, so putting less stock into that. my 2c.

I recently changed to a Rega Naia package ($17K), so different approach (P8-type). Do you like the minimalist/low mass approach? I noticed right away the better tighter bass with the Rega. Speed control is by button on goes right up to target speed.
