Sorry to dare to suggest this but is anyone out there using their Meridian kit to listen to Vinyl records AND getting good results?

I have an 18 bit DSP5000 Trifield system with 565 Z3 and a 562V with phono stage.

When I bought the 562V, I added the phono stage because I had a record deck and about Vinyl 100 records. I was however very disappointed with the sound.

The record deck I was using was a Sansui 222Mk2 with Grado cartridge. I know this wasnt the highest quality turntable at the time but was part of my old system.

Project RPM decks seem to be the rage now. Anyone have any opinions, know costs and how would a Vinyl record compare with the same CDs.
