[QUOTE="Winslow, post: 322268, member: 9104"] Nothing to shabby there. A humble Rega Planar 2 1977 model with a motor mod and a new RB250 arm with an Ortofon Red kicks butt and did not cost an arm and a leg. Have heard may a more highly regarded table and have felt no need to change it. Will have to spend about R20,000 to better it but only slightly no point. Then it starts to get silly, fancy MC Cartridges fussy set ups and pricey Phono stages, not going to enter the land of diminishing returns. If it makes fine music and that is all that matters. My junk heap rescue Pioneer PLD15 with a R300 Sumiko Oyster cartridge makes me smile every time I play it.. I ignore all the hype and opinions if it makes the foot tap and I want to get up and dance mission accomplished. Music thats what it is all about. The Best and Cheapest Happy Drug in the Universe. Plus it is the everlasting hit it does not go up in smoke you pop it back in its sleeve for next time. [/QUOTE]
