Just pulled the trigger on an Arcam - SA20 amp with some Klipsch “the sevens” speakers. Still haven’t decided on turntable. Obviously spent some cash on the system so need to get something solid. Thoughts on a turntable to go with?

    I’ve got an SA30 in my office currently, and an SA10 looking for a home. Both are excellent. The Class G output on the SA30 is amazing, I would imagine it’s similar on the SA20.

    In addition to making good amps, Arcam has a good track record for phono stages, and I’d imagine it’s a very good MM phono stage on the SA20.

    Admittedly I haven’t personally heard an MM cart on it, but I have experience with the MC stage on my SA30 and it’s excellent IMHO

    I’d keep the amp and get some passive speakers. The SA20 is just so versatile, it makes a great foundation to build a very good system around.
