Just what the Caption says!

What is your favorite vynil rig?

For me i only have 2 tt's. And the one we or i use the most(like 99.99999999999999% percent of the time) is a Pioneer PL-540 connected to a Sansui QRX-7500A.
Speakers are a set of Coral BX40 or bx-60 and the other pair a set of sansui SP-30(very near mint condition). These speakers arent the greatest for bass but they have an effortless mid range presence.

What i like about the rig?

The tt is mid-line but of descent build quality. MDF plinth covered with some grey(not sure what it is) it also has RCA jacks in the rear. Which makes swapping cables a snap. It has auto return.

The current receiver in use is the sansui stated above. Near top of the line goodness. But its a huge receiver(quad) It has a good sound but im sure it would sound better if i would clean out the switches. Surprisingly there is no static on the knobs potentiometers. signal level VU meters which helps in calibration or tuning of the sound with out over driving or under driving the receiver.

Before this setup we used a HK PM 655 for the rig. Which is a fine Integrated in its own right. Way under the radar. It has an mm/mc amp and sensitivity switch.

The speakers are nothing special. Just that they have an effortless midrange. And seem to be unforgiving of poorly recorded music. But they are good for back ground music. Which i do when im using the rig.

Usually i liste to cable musi, because of greater selection and genres available.

And this wont be the last iteration of the rig we have. and i would like to hear or read of your favorite rig or your only rig you like to use.

the bass out of our rig doesnt go as deep as id like. But that is ok. We get enough bass from our main rig. But that is awhole nother story. no time for it here.
