Technodec w/Michell moded RB250, Used P25, P5?

The question is self explanatory. Deal for a P25 fell through (not my fault), so the question is opened up again. I care about PRAT, accuracy (musicality), ease of use, reliability.

Anybody compared these decks? Is the P5 significantly better sounding than the P25?

Techno and P5 represent the upper bound on my resources. Anything I'm I'd be foolish not to consider?

Thanks!!

There's a horizon on Audiogon at the moment with an RB300. Supposed to be a very good deck.

I would urge you to consider a Scheu Cello. This is a very modestly priced belt drive table that uses the same bearing and motor as their much more expensive Premier II (world class table) and can be ordered with either a RB250 or Scheu arms fitted from the factory.

A Cello with no arm is less than 1000 US; with the RB250 around 1200. Order direct from Scheu at:

They will send you a current price list in Euros if you ask nicely!

Scheu looks interesting. But what's the basis of your recommendation, Carl? I assume you've heard it. How does it sound, as compared with the others?
