I have a similar but opposite story than you. Years ago I had a Denon DP-37 DD turntable that I was happy with. Locally there was a AR turntable that came up for sale. I had never owned a belt drive turntable and the price was right so I bought it. I had two of the same Shure carts. and had them mounted on both turntables.
The difference in sound was not subtle, the AR beat the pants out of the Denon. I could hear ea. instrument individually, soundstage was really realistic, and the music just sounded right. The Denon however sounded mechanical and lifeless in comparison.....
