Asedillo Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Hi, just wanted to seek some advise about TT. I bought my first TT last month which is Project Debut Carbon Recordmaster HiRes with 2M red cart. I am loving the sound of it and starting to collect my records and I'm planning to have another TT for my other integrated amp. Unfortunately due to my schedule ( most of the time on-call) and location, I don't normally have the luxury of time to audition hence most of my purchased are just based on reviews. I am thinking between Rega P6, Technics SL1200G (Which unfortunately I cannot find any dealers here so far), VPI Prime Scout and Acoustic Signature Primus. Anyone had a change to listen to some of these and compare them? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jakeyb77 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) See @Krispy Audio about a VPI. I love my Scout. I sold my upgraded Linn LP12 to buy the Scout and I don’t miss the Linn. I love Rega arms but their tables like like cheap lazy Susans to me. Edited January 1, 2019 by jakeyb77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cope Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 There was some talk about the new Technics decks being available through a DJ store in NZ, I think? Someone more knowledgeable than me might have more info. FWIW, in that price range I hear good things about Clearaudio - I'd consider getting opinions on those also. All I can offer is that I have an old SL1210 MK2, and I prefer it to the Regas I've heard, but it's not entirely due to the sound. Old or new, Technics direct drive tables are unfussy about placement, and are basically idiot-proof. If you're the kind of person who stresses about breaking expensive things, the Technics will put your mind at ease. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRSDarwin Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hi Asedillo, I have Clearaudio Concept TT, started with MM cartridge then over a year ago moved to MC, into my Musical Fidelity M6si and then to Paradigm Studio 100s. Sensational sound. The Clearaudio has been trouble free and comes pre-set up so very easy to deal with. I noticed genuine improvements in sound as I increased the quality of my phono-stage (built into M6si) and amp and later again the MC cartridge. So it definitely allows an upgrade path Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
