Agreed. He could prolly do with a whole-system upgrade, starting with the TT (not least to do less damage to his vinyl). However working with what we have to work with...One of those ATs should do you just fine, as they are just the "better". Minor disagreement: the output can be no better than the combined components; that output is usually hobbled by the least components. That's why you get clearer sound at lesser volume with higher quality components--laws of diminishing returns apply, natch. More signal, less noise.
