Guys, I'm looking to try a turntable I found ( Original Rega Planar 3 with a Nagoaka MP20 )
Anyone got one at a reasonable price ?

Hi John, I don't have a phono amp, sorry. However, many years ago I did have a Rega 2, Japanese tone arm and a Nagaoka MP 20, lovely combination.

Thanks Sean , yes I hankered after one of these when I was a lad , just wondering what type of cartridge and maybe changing the arm or arm cable . Would it be worth it ?

Hi John,
I have a phono amp which I would consider selling. It's a Dynavector P75 Mk3 - a very well regarded and flexible unit that can be tailored to any cartridge. It sounds great and I'm happy to demo (based in Dublin). I have the original packaging, literature and allen key (required to open the casing to configure the 'jumpers' to cartridge).
Reason for selling - I bought an Accuphase integrated last year and it has a very good phono section built in.
Looking for €500.
Lots of reviews around the web. Some pics here...

you could worse than a Project box new from Richer Sounds. €60 will get you going and if you find vinyl isn't for you sell the TT and amp together later on...

+1 on the Project phono-amp. €38 more and you get one that will handle MM or MC in case you upgrade later on.
Check out HiFi Hut if near Dublin too:
