I’ve recently set up my SME 20/3 with SME V arm and Koetsu Red T cart. I’m very pleased with it:





That is an incredible vinyl setup, congrats! A Koetsu/SME combo is serious business!

Well, you all seem to have much nicer turntables than me. But I must say, this thing sounds pretty darn good. Technics SL-B20. I bought it off a guy from Craigslist about 5 years ago for 30 bucks. It was running like a top when I got it and still is.

I have zero complaints as far as the sound. I just wish it was black instead of silver. All my other components are black and it sticks out like a sore thumb.

I'm angling for a PLX-500 for Christmas. If anybody has experience with that table I'd love to hear about it.

Very impressive looking setup Skylab - how does your vintage Denon DD compare?

Honestly the Denon is very, very close to the VPI in terms of sound quality. And in terms of features/ease of use the Denon is superior.

Just goes to show Skylab, how good the Japanese direct drive serious turntables were from the 70s & 80s.

According to some the finest ever Japanese direct drive turntable from that time was the Denon broadcast turntable the DP-100 (not the new Chinese Anniversary model). Your DP-60 comes from that heritage, so I’m not surprised it’s close to your VPI sonically.

Never get tired of looking at great vinyl setups! I'm now almost 99% vinyl source (in listening hours) between my 2 rigs; barely 1% digital, if that :D Love the vinyl life to death.
Better pic of my main spinner. Sorry if y'all seen these before:

Damn... Impressive!

My own continually upgraded but far more modest and patchwork rig:

Beautiful Sky, just got that album for my birthday as well:wink:

@mulveling , wicked Clear Audio setup and the Sota is pretty sweet too:beerchug:

Who knew the least expensive cartridge I've ever had on the Amadeus would be the best sounding cartridge I've ever had on it:astonished:

I’m also very happy with the 440MLb on my Garrard...
