Help with Turntable purchase
Posted on 9/22/20 at 9:07 am

I am looking to purchase a turntable. I have not had one in many years. The wife and I have a old collection of vinyl and would like to play them again.
I am going to connect this through my Denon surround sound amp. I looked around Amazon and found this but I know zero about the quality any more. Id like to spend less than $300 or so if possible.
Anyone know anything about this company or can you recommend something? Thanks

For your price point I think that is your best option. It is what I have and I like it. The only think I'd recommend is upgrading the cartridge pretty quickly down the road.

AT makes decent quality turntables. I don't know anything about that particular one, and I'm far from an expert to begin with, but I think you'd be fine with that one.
My only suggestion is to not run it through a surround sound system. Music is recorded and produced for 2 channels. I'd imagine there's a way to configure the surround sound for just L and R output though.

That one is perfect for your budget IMO

If you’re going to purchase a turntable, I highly recommend you check out turntablelab.com. I bought a pretty solid turntable package there last year. Also, I’d wait closer to the holiday season. I saved 100 bucks on a Black Friday deal. LINK
I also spent a lot of time educating myself because I didn’t know shite about turntables. Belt drive is preferred, the ability to upgrade the needle is important and you need to understand whether or not you want a model with or without a built in preamp.
