Re: Ready to get back to vinyl. TT recomendations?

I bought a Music Hall MMF2.1 a couple of years ago. For the price it's a decent setup and better than many of the plastic tables you may find kicking around. It's Goldring Elan cartridge is pretty decent too. The setup is clean and simple. The tone arm is satisfactory esp. for the price point. I've tweaked my MMF2.1 a bit. I firstly sprayed on a rubberised undrecoating on the inside bottom of the platter. I also changed the felt matt with a slighty thicker and more plyable matt cut from a felt like fabric I got at a fabric store.

Today though if I were to buy a new turntable, I'd problay find the money to spend a bit more than what the MMF2.1 gives. You can find models from $300-$1,000 from brands as Music Hall, MMF5 or MMF7, Project (various models) and Rega P-2.

Maybe it is because my tastes and desires have now moved above that of my MMF2.1 that I would if doing it all over today, spend a bit more. But again that being said for under $300 the MMF 2.1 is a decent table that will make you like records more than most CD's you may have.
