There is no such thing as top end with vinyl. Poor-to-middling is as
good as it is possible to get. It has built into it distortion levels
which, in an amplifier, would result in it being binned.
Bass response is limited by the need to limit groove amplitude in
recording, and by the necessary arm resonance at reproduction.
Treble response is limited by temperature rise in the cutting head.

In short, if you are interested in musical reproduction, forget it,
but if you just want to collect interesting technology make a bid. But
don't go over a tenner.
