TT/ cartridge recommendations $1000

Never, Sedond...my rig is sounding better and better. Bill of GTT Audio says it will rival $10K systems. I can see that happening now...If I was into archival recording I'd get an Oracle, no doubt in my mind. But for spinning vinyl, the 1200. I am also buying a parametric EQ for my rig. Yeah.

We blew the tonearm rewiring...had to order new assembly. Oh, well, lesson learned...don't f*** with it. Not worth it.

Sedond(Doug),
I bought the VPI Jr with the Benz Glider here on Audiogon and expect to receive it this weekend. Thanks for your advice. I have learned alot from the many experienced audiophiles here on Audiogon and am enjoying the benefits of the "high end". Big O aka Len

congrats bigo, i tink yule be in winyl bliss! ;~) and, if the upgrade bug bites again, the vpi jr has a path to lead ya! that arm's wiring can be upgraded as well.

happy listening, doug s.

Good move, Bigo Len! BTW, a friend has adjusted vertical tracking on the Glider a tad (a FEW degrees) forward -- says it's the correct angle... you may want to try!

Enjoy!

Hey, with a lot of luck and looking out you can sometimes get a truly ridiculous deal on stuff...I just got a VPI Mk-IV with a Grado s-curve tonearm (not sure of the model) a Grado reference series cartridge (again not sure of the specific model)custom sound damping a VPI power line conditioner a VPI 16.5 record cleaner and top notch cables all for $150 in perfect contion. I haven't been able to find specific prices on most of this stuff, but the record cleaner and cartridge alone total a minimum of $800 so it's gotta be a few grand worth. If anyone has any info on this TT or tonearm I would really apreciate it cause I cant seem to find very much.
