Hey all, I'm looking to rip a lot of old LPs and 7"s, and I'd like to get some good equipment to do it. I have an old turntable (unsure how good it really is), that Chaintech sound card nerds are always talking about, but I need advice on how to rip records so that they'll sound good. I assume I'll need a good preamp, cartridge/needle... what else?

For me that’s always meant getting a 1200, and even at a grand without a headshell the Mk 7 appeals to me as an “endgame” table. Something like a Rega RP3 comes in at a similar price and I’d much rather go with DD. This is so funny to me, as someone who's getting back into this after 8 years, because ten years ago I literally bought a 1200 because I couldn't afford a brand new Pro-Ject. Times change! edit: speaking of which, I'm still using the Concorde cartridge it came with, including what I realize now is a mismatched Scratch stylus. What do people like these days, or am I better off just replacing the stylus? kingcobweb fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Mar 18, 2019 |
