+1 on used Technics 1200 or, if you can find one, the 1600. I've had an SL-1600MKII for 35 years and it is still going strong.
Entry level turntable for my son
Hello all,
My 16 year old has the same audio sickness as me. He recently approached me about acquiring a turntable for his system. Any recommendations on the entry level stuff from Rega, project, music hall, etc? Should I stick with the newer stuff or look for an older model like a Planar 3 or a MMF-5? I still use my Linn LP 12, but I hear the newer ones out there have some nice new features the older entry level stuff didn’t. I don’t think he will be looking to do any modifications in the near future, he just wants to spin some vinyl.
Thanks in advance!
