Thanks.. I'm very much leaning towards it... can anyone think of a label or
some recent releases that are vinyl only.. artists etc.. just to give me an
idea if there are any i can spot, or actively seek out once i do get one..
Torn between a cheap one, Project Debut ~£150 with built in phono preamp (my
amp dont have it :( ), or the project RM4 or something.. £350 + £50 phono (+
extra pair of interconnects for turntable to preamp, preamp to main amp) ...
My discovery of anti-audiophile/hifi makes me know that even mains cable has
been shown to be unidentifiable from the most expensive of interconnects but
still i dont know if i can go this far.. my other cable interconnects for
serious hifi are £100 each, one is at £250.. why oh why :)
Any opinions on these project turntables would be appreciated, and like i
said further thoughts on the joys of vinyl, and examples of vinyl only, or
great quality vinyl electronica would be appreciated... isnt electronica
usually mastered fairly well compared to mainstream pop, so the biggest
advantage of vinyl when its available on both formats will be less evident
than on more mainstream music..
Cheers
