Recently a coworker gave me a Technics Sl1500 manual direct drive table that had been stored in his garage for about 15 years.
It has a stock tonearm and a Stanton 681eee? cart/stylus.
After cleaning the accumulated dirt and dust off of it, one channel was intermittent turns out the pins on the cartridge were quite dirty.
I haven't listened to vinyl myself in about 10-15 years so I just want to get a taste again before going wild in upgrades.I only have about 35 albums but there is a good store nearby selling new and used vinyl.
Now for the point of the thread. Looking at Shure M97xe,AT440MLand Ortofon OM-10/20.
Also I'm using the Phono input on a HK 3480.Music is Rock'Classic Rock and folk such as Dylan , Neil Young , Joni Mitchell and such. Interested in exploring Miles Davis , Coltrane ,Ramsey Lewis etc.
Recommend one of the above and why please.One other note ,though I listened to records growing up I have little experience with tables and such.thank you.
