Turntable/arm/cartridge VALUE combination for 600

I am looking for a turntable package (arm/cart.) combination that is very musical. I am looking to keep the budget under 600. USED is preffered (more bang for th ebuck)

Yes, I release it will not be top of the line. I would also appreciate comments on inexpensive phon pre-amps. I heard great things about the PS audio GCph ($500 too much).

Can you comment on the Bellari V129 or V130-- this is usually sold for 100- 150.

The Music Hall tables are good values and when upgrading you'll get most if not all of your money back.

which music hall models should I target? The MMf7 or 7.1?

...which model depends on your budget, but I would go with the most recent upgrade possible, so 7.1 (I would save a few bucks and go with the 5.1 and use saved money for some new vinyl.).

If you are not opposed to used, your money will go a lot further. Used VPI, Rega, and others can be had for what you are willing to spend. There are a few in the adds right now.
