    Turntable

    Any recommendations as to a good turntable for my system. I'd like it to be someone sonically equivalent to my cd player. Simply for comparison purposes. Also around $500 would be nice. Price before sonic equivalence though. Thank you much.

    With all respect this section is for B&W speakers, so maybe move it to the right place..

    However for that kind of money I would either suggest looking at something used/secondhand or try to take a look at Pro-ject or music hall. Think Pro-ject give you a lot of bang for the buck and they are easy to upgrade if you feel like it (new platters). Music hall is made by Pro-ject anyway..

      Any thoughts on the Rega P3? Does anyone know the Canadian retail price of this table?

      Also how do I move this threat to a more proper location?

        "The term "audiophile" means essentially nothing -- it's a self-anointed status that entails no credentials, qualifications or certifications. It means "hobbyist," nothing more, and anyone can lay claim to it. Ironically, I've come to recognize that "audiophiles" represent a group that will believe almost anything"
