Bravo!

Indeed, these are the two turntable i always recommend!

Rega 3 is the best quality/price in whole Hifi, along with Jolida for tube amps.

On another hand, JVC amp is bad. Replaced it by a good Rotel i.e, it will be miles better.

The Elyss or Super Elyss cartridge provided with the Rega Planar 3 is a litle good one to start.

But serious vynil requires a moving coil, which is a another world, such as a good "Dynavector" one.

after years of searching for my ideal prog sound, here are my favourite turntables and i can highly recommend them....!

LINN SONDEK LP12

one of the most popular high-end turntables available, amazingly detailed stereo image, excellent bass, spacious clear soundstage, very revealing though low surface noise. will show up flaws in a bad recording. fitted with ITTOK tonearm and AUDIO TECHNICA AT440ML cartridge.

REGA PLANAR 3

legendary quality, lively detailed sound, excellent sound quality for a budget turntable. fitted with RB300 tonearm and AUDIO TECHNICA AT440ML cartridge. used with JVC A-X2 class "A" amplifier and HEYBROOK HB2 speakers.
