Hallo,
Being very satisfied by my Devialet expert 140 pro, I’ m guessing what are the best turntables to connect.
I’m open to any suggestion: new models and vintage ones. I think a reasonable budget, compared to the amplifier could be 2500 €/USD.

A Linn LP 12 is a no brainer!

Rega Planar 6 Neo with Excalubur Red is a great combo with the Dev 140 - 1800 Euro!

It’s a high output mc - good value, it’s the brother from black / low output

I'd also look at the Dynavector DV-10x5 mk ll. Shibata stylus high output MC. Should work very well with a Planar 6.
EDIT: ahh, old thread. I guess the OP @
Giubeca has already bought his turntable.

The Technics SL-1500C is very nice. I don't like the looks of the 1200 much. SL-1000R is much nicer, but the price... (although I owned the original SL-1000 many years ago). If there was a mod for the headshell bayonet - a proprietary headshell mounted directly on the arm tube, the new 1500C would be really great.

Probably the best bang for buck is the Rega P8.
I currently run two tonearms, one is medium output SoundSmith Zephyr Mk2, the other is a low output Koetsu Urushi that I run through an external phono amplifier.
As a starter in the vinyl game, I would avoid low output cartridges as I understand the 140 has a slimmed down phono stage. Perhaps a P6 and Exact MM would be a good starting point, or end point.
