Nottingham Interspace TT/Arm vs Used Linn Lp12


I am trying to get into LP after 15 years of Cd, mostly for classical music.
Any advice on new Nottingham Interspace TT/arm combo vs, used Linn LP-12 /Valhalla/Ittok II combo. Also what cartridge in $500-700 should I consider for respective combo ?

IMHO, the Interspace and up in the 'Not line will make you forget about the Linn (which I have owned). E-mail me in the event you'd like further detail on what I anticipate will be a sound choice for you.
Take 4yanx advice and go w/the Interspace. I've heard many state that even the Horizon will compete w/the Linn. Recommend a Shelter 501 II if you can find one in budget or Dynavector 10x5 or Denon 103 otherwise.
