If by cheap you mean using the portal gun to move a spawner unless you changed the configs I suggest you look at the updated recipe for the portal gun before you call it cheap. if you mean turrets off any sort of normal style mob gen build when I would also suggest just using a melee turtle less noise and you only need one.

Like I have here.

I meant using the sentinel turret yes. unless that recipe has been changed too? havent made on in a while.
With soulshards you dont want to move the spawner anymore. you want to collect it's essence to upgrade you shard instead. you can get more productive spawners that way.

Which is what I did. Below are two tier 5 spawners I made by looting a liches home of spawners to feed the shards.Took about 3ish hours and a few deaths (ok a lot of deaths) to get them to five each but them castles they by full up on spawners.

If you're concerned about the (relatively) low cost of turrets, MFFS mob killing fields would also work fine.
