Anybody have experience with a Pro-ject RM 6 SB?


I am having a hard time finding reviews for this model. I believe it is not made anymore. I have come across a demo Pro-ject RM 6 SB with a Blue Point Special EVO III cartridge that I am considering picking up. Has anybody heard or used one?

Thanks

I owned one for a couple years until very recently, and it's a solid performer. It clearly beat a Music Hall MMF-5 and an old Technics SL1200. I replaced it with a KAB-modified Technics SL1210 and feel that I've gone up a notch or two from the Pro-ject, but for the price paid it worked very well. I used an Audio Technica 440ML to good effect. I've heard your cartridge is very good, and I'd imagine it should work well on the Pro-ject.

I had the same setup and wasn't impressed. It couldn't sound much better than my $300 (used) Sony C333ES cd player. I had the setup checked by a vinylhead buddy of mine and everything was still right but the sound lacked dynamics and slam, as well as fine detail, even with "audiophile" vinyl on it. I was expecting more out of it so I sold it and bought a bunch of CDs instead.
