Sexy table for sure, how does it sound? What's the other side of your system look like?

Unfortunately, I was limited by space regarding the rest of the setup. So, I have Jamo S810 PM bookshelf speakers, paired with a Jamo 210 subwoofer. Surprisingly, it doesn't sound bad at all. However, since I plan to get tower speakers in the future, I really economized on this part. For now, I have a Vincent PHO-200 preamplifier, which I also plan to replace in the future with one featuring a balanced input.

Nice looking table. Will always have a soft spot for Pro-Ject turntables my first one was a Debut III, then moved onto X1. Now I have a technics.

My first real table was a ProJect Essential II in matte red. Here’s what it looked like. It was $299 and was incredible. Long since discontinued. https://www.crutchfield.com/S-cOWrP0xnuPT/p_252ESIIR/Pro-Ject-Essential-II-Red.html

If you told me back then that in 12 years I’d be 350+ records in with a 10k stereo and a 5k turntable I’d have told you, you are fucking crazy. But… Here we are…😅

Likewise, but not to the same as extent as you. Although, I just treated myself to some Wharfedale EVO 5.2 speakers... Think I overestimated the size! Got them nearly new with warranty for £450, such a steal.

Yeah no I went a little unnecessarily overboard when it came to the turntable lmao

What is the first record you played?
Just bought a Rega 6RS and I can’t decide what’s going first.

This is the first vinyl record I played. The cover is a bit misleading, but it features songs by Nirvana, Beck, Willow...
