Question for Opus 104.... or others

Posted by AbeCollins on January 17, 2010 at 12:12:17:
Do you think the Jelco 750D with DL-103 would be an upgrade over the stock Technics tonearm with the same cartridge?

If not, I wonder what my choices are in the $500 range? Or should I just keep the stock Technics arm at that price point?

Are the Rega 301 / 700 compatible with the Technics (not necessarily with DL-103) and would these arms be upgrades or only on par with the stock Technics arm?

I'm trying to determine if there's an upgrade path for the stock Technics arm at under $500.

I'm not real interested in a linear tracker, new or used, at this point.

Thanks!
