Vinyl listeners? hifi systems?
Posted on: 19.05.2013 by Laurel Litchko
Hi all,

My vinyl collection is starting to get a bit bigger and I am (more) actively collecting records. Outside of "DJ music," I do listen to lots of music. Right now i have a NAS drive with my iTunes library and use my Technics 1210/DJM 900 to listen to records. Unfortunately, I may be getting rid of the TTs and mixer (still weighing my options) and would like to replace them with a good "listening turntable" and speakers. For sound, I use the 5" pioneer DJ speakers/monitors.

tl;dr: any recommendations for a good "for-listening turntable" and speaker? I would like something that is...uh...pretty. lol seems shallow and half stupid, but these pieces would probably front and center in my living room.

Never sell your technics, unless you have more than 1 set

Just stick with your Technics.

I bought a pair of Technics for this reason.

Technics were originally marketed as Hifi tables, but DJs picked them up. Speakerwise, that's a bit more complex...

Just buy a hifi cartridge in place of your dj cartridge. I just bought an Ortofon Omega for 30 bucks since the needle can be upgraded to their top of the line MM cartridge stylus (OM-40). Otherwise, Shure M97XE and Audio Technica AT-95 are good bets too. Denon has some nice ones as well.

Awesome site that I'm using to rebuild my Technics:
