  Which low cost turntable should I choose ?
I have recently built a valve amp and speakers
World audio design KEL84 (15 watts output)
IPL M3TL Transmission line speakers.

The system sounds good, but I now want to add a turntable so I can solve the vinyl versus CD question for myself.

I want to add a low cost (2nd hand) turntable, but have read so many different articles, I now don't know which way to turn.

From my reading, I favour either a Michell Focus One or Systemdek IIX/900 but cannot find any direct comparisons.

My budget is approx £200 (give or take).

Any other ideas, please advise !...

Many thanks,
Layton  (Threads | This Thread)

This is why I told you not to get a turntable:

It is NOT a vinyl vs CD question.
