I'm just about to enter into the world of turntables and have narrowed it down to two choices.
VPI HW-19 Jr. with Audioquest PT-6 tonearm
or
AR ES-1 with stock tonearm
So, what are your thoughts on these two tables, and what might be the better choice. Now, I'm a tiny bit familiar with VPI. My father runs an HW-19 in his stereo and it sounds incrediable, but then again, it's not the Jr. and his system is way out of my league. Of course, my father is saying to go with the VPI table, but I think that he may be a bit biased.
Probably just pick up a cheap Grado cart and save a bit for a good MC. Any recommendations?
Thanks!
