Listening Room

Greetings Fellow Trolls!!

I am helping setup a listening room for bands & artists to listen to their test pressings. What would your ideal setup look like? Type of turntable, amp, speakers, etc.

Thanks!

It would have a number of TT and cartridge options. Some clients complain about the sound of their test pressings, only to find out they are listening on a Crosley or similar garbage. Let them hear a wide variety of playback options.

I would also invest in a few tools to set up their tables so they can maximize their own system's performance.

Thanks so much for the response! Could you be more specific? What brand turn tables do you recommend? What about speakers and other equipment? I agree that most folks hear ducts are influenced by crappy gear, which is why I wanted to ask for help
