I'm thinking of upgrading my turntable in the next couple of weeks but will be buying secondhand. My short list at the minute is
Rega Planar 3
AR EB101
Linn Axis
Had an EB101 many years ago and loved the sound and thought about going back to one of these but the Rega is a simpler design and also offers a better upgrade route. Don't really know much about the Linn but it's within my price range and always fancied a Linn but obviously an LP12 but that's quite a bit over budget. Believe the power supply on these is the achilles heal. As I'm buying secondhand chances are I won't beable to demo them so any thought much appreciated.
