My current TT (and only since 1974) is a Technics SL1300. I put a new SAS stylus on the cart. recently. Sounds very detailed and hits the highs very well.
Aside from a couple of hiccups once in awhile (occasionally it won't turn itself off at the end of an LP record, or not wanting to turn off at all, so I flip the power switch) it is really satisfactory. I don't notice any hum or other noise or rumble when running. I have a couple of MM carts for it, a Shure and Grado. Again, no complaints about the performance of the carts. I like the sound.
Yet, since it is my only reference point, perhaps I don't know what I'm missing? Or perhaps ignorance is bliss?
Should I consider an upgrade? If so, what?
what about a MC cart? I have no experience in this area. (my phono preamp stage will work for MM & MC.) or would such be a waste of money?
This hobby is a bit like a drug addiction... I'm always looking for the next good hit!!
