Hi VC:
Looking to upgrade from a Crosley I got for the holidays from my girlfriend a few years ago. Haven't played it in about a year, after learning how bad the needle is for the records. As of right now I am considering a U-Turn, just a matter of which Orbit:
As of right now I am considering the following:
U-Turn Orbit Basic
MDF platter and CN5625AL cartridge
Built-in preamp (added)
Cue lever (added)
U-Turn Orbit Plus
Acrylic platter and Ortfon OM5E cartridge
Built-in preamp (added)
Cue lever (added)
Going to pair either of these with the Audioengine A2+ Powered Speakers. Looks like the price will be $289 vs. $399 unless I get one of the wood plinths. Any Orbit owners have any input? Thanks!
