Since the requirement of "good" is so subjective, as is each persons individual tastes...
For me I am happier with my $250 TT + $115 cart. + $450 phono pre-pre analogue starter setup than my $2,500 Sony SACD.
And LPs... from zero to almost 4,000 since June of 2003. Where I live over 25 places sell used vinyl within a 15 minute freeway drive.
My total average cost has been about $0.40 each.
Hundreds at $0.18 each... 350 nice classic chamber music last month for free.
And I am talking about good VG++ originals.
So partly the switch back to vinyl has been economic.
I have enough music to keep me happy for a very long time.
