Classic B65A

I am almost a 100 vinyls deep It was time to replace the novelty toy with a real turntable awhile ago :) That mustang thing has a cheap ceramic cartridge, a cheap motor, a tiny cheap speaker :( Starter setup with a good MM moving magnet cartridge, a good diamond tip stylus, plus an RIAA phono preamp

Neither of those cheap brands are worth spending any money on. Better Fluance RT81 $255 on sale from $299 with built in phono preamp. Plus Starter powered speakers: For a large room or a medium size room if you have room for them, large 6.5" mid bass driver Dayton Classic B65A $159. For a medium siz

Pass on that setup. The better Fluance to buy is the RT82 or higher that add a speed sensor for lower wow and flutter and speed variation and the speed won't drift over time.

The better Denon DP-300F $249 on sale upgrades to an adjusta

The thing with "entry level" is they are mostly crap. Unreliable, poor performance, poor tracking ability, no upgrade path. So I recommend you avoid entry level and buy better so you don't need to buy again for a very long time. For example, minimum turntable is anything from the Audio Technica Step

imma get the clear acrlylic audio technica when i got money Not the turntable, the turntable is fine to start with, it's the speakers that are the sound quality bottleneck, first replace the tiny 2.5" basic plastic computer speakers with a good pair of full size room listening speakers!

Starter setup under $400: AT-LPW30 $199 on sale from $329 is three steps up from the basic bare minimum $199 AT-LP60X. Plus starter powered speakers: Large 6.5" mid bass driver Dayton Classic B65A $159. For a small room, smaller 4" Dayton Classic B40A $99 on sale. Speaker Placement • Intro to Home S
