Hi All,

I have been interested in music and audio gear since 1980.   Around 10 years ago I started again with some more Audiophile equipment.   Most of the time I play flac/ dsd files from a hard drive as well as streaming of tidal and spotify via a Macbook and a streamer I made .

At local Audio Shows I came across Open Baffle Speakers and nice Analog setups, now I am looking for a turntable..   

I  live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Nick

I was looking at old turntables that are well maintained/restored  like Thorens TD160  or something completely  new like entre  level VPI Player or Clearaudio Concept.    But I very little about turntables.    I have a ICT background  and  digital audio is easier  for me.    I need to listen  at a reseller or someone who knows more about this.

Have fun here!   :thumb:
