You can be more ambitious than changing the cart too;
Is that a RB250 or a 300 ?
RB202. There’s a guy somewhere in the Midlands knocking them out. I still have that I think.
Worth looking into. Thanks.
He’s probably sorted now, but I could offer an Aiwa 2600 t/t (a decent semi-auto, arm lift and motor stop by optical sensor at side end) with a cart, JPW AP3 speakers, and one of a few amps for £500.
Nice speakers. Need a good amp to show their best though
He’s not sorted yet tbh. He really likes the lookof the AT LP5 but at the price I found it at Currys (£189) its predictably out of stock and he’s hoping it will come back on before the deal expires.
However please tell me about the choice of amps and what colour/ condition are your JPWs?
Thanks for all the ideas and offers.
In the end he went for a pair of Edifier S3000 Pros
And a Sony PS4300 turntable -
Just need to find him a cheap and small MM phono stage now.
Project phono box would be an obvious choice.
Schitt Mani is good if you can get one
or maybe this
Phonobox SE 11?
MM/MC if he fancies playing around with carts. £100 posted?
I’ve got a nad pp1 I can do for postage and a forum donation
The speakers are actually pretty decent. Enjoying mine.
What do you have yours say on? Stands or a sideboard or shelf?
Filled stands. They’re a bit big for a shelf / desk etc.
