Hi Sebastian73,

I have heard systems using a Audionote TT2 sounding very good. I have heard it with a Rega arm and an Audionote IO cartridge. Good sense of naturalnes and music flow. You may prefer it to the Rega.

I think the TT2 costs around £1000. Buying blind always has an element of risk. Also there is the risk of damge from transit.

If the price is good, you could buy it and sell it on if you don't prefer it to the Rega.

How much can you spend? If you have enough money, a even better deck may be the way forward.
