I wouldn't put much value into Amazon reviews of audio gear whatsoever from the many I've read. Do you really need to change anything, tho? Do you really want to invest in vinyl? I couldn't see starting over with vinyl, only reason I still have it is because I had it before digital (and my tt is 37 years old and doing well), just needs a new cartridge once in a while but the one I have now is probably my last. Too much expense/fussing for a limited media format.
