I am constantly being asked by people in their twenties who don't have much money if they can get into analog for $100
to $200 in the used market.These guys want to try analog but are afraid to spend much on the stuff. If any of you read this the cheapest way in is to find a good old early 70's Pioneer or similar table like the old PL41 they weigh about 30 lbs have a decent motor ok arm and don't react
badly to a cheaper Grado use them until your ready to get your first high end table then put it in your second system or give it to a friend and pass on the analog infection. I'm in the business and I sell the MMF and Rega tables but some of the old stuff you can get used is almost as good (for next to no money) then buy more records with the money you save. Remember its about the music not just the equipment.
