The best deck I have heard - which is also my favorite deck is the original Audio Note TT3. The TT3 is a remake of the Voyd Reference which was arguably one of the best turntables in existence with three separate motors. The TT3 rig I auditioned rand about $20,000US but the company has since moved on to a new in house TT3 that with arm and cart would run over $80,000.

So yeah I'll never be able to afford one unless all you generous audiophiles would like to donate to the RGA needs a top vinyl rig fund. I have purchased a TT2 which is not in the same class but I am going to be picking it up next month and am quite excited to listen to this reworked and turbocharged Systemdek II

The new TT3 I really would love to audition http://www.audionote.co.uk/articles/...s/HFC10_AN.pdf
