I recommend the Kanto YU4 speakers. Currently on sale. They're powered, so no, nothing else required to use them.

What combo should I get?
Budget, future plans, expectations? Location, local stores? I went into a dealer looking for a low cost upgrade to my turntable, amp, speakers traditional set up. Instead of selling me something he knew was not going to be better he offered to set up my systems and compare it against their pick of t

Most customisable?
The Kanto Yu4 is a great example of a powered speaker that has a built-in phono preamp. If you go with these, you don't need a phono preamp built into your TT.

best budget speakers with a built in phono preamp?
Passive and separate speaker amp you can later upgrade one part at a time. If you need to go powered then Kanto YU4 or 6 with built in phono preamp are good. Or 4" Kanto YU $199 on sale plus a Fosi X5 Phono or Emotive Phono https://emotiva.com/products/ph-1-phono-stage Or 4" Onkyo on sale with built

Do you still use PC speakers?
It was one of the best investments I've made in a while, when I'm watching movies, tv shows or listening to music I love my speakers (Kanto Yu4) they make the audio experience way more immersive, theres something to being hit with base all over not just your ears, it only improves the experience in

suggestions for good record player
Something like the excellent Kanto YU4 and an AT turntable YU4 includes a phono stage pre-amp. The speakers are powered and have various inputs, amplification and nothing further is needed. To add streaming and internet radio you can cast from a mobile phone or tablet or get a Wiim Mini. https://www

Advice for a set-up around a gifted Turntable
Pro-Ject turntable T1 Phono. has a phono stage pre-amp but is switchable you need to switch to line level for powered speakers. Sonos Play 5 is a good speaker but limited to the small speaker.

Which built in preamp? Kanto YU4's or the AT-LP3XBT's
What is the room length and width? Edifier R1280 and Kanto YU4 are both compact 4" mid bass driver speakers for a smallish size room. For a medium to large size room consider larger 5.25" or 6.5" speakers. Kanto YU6 are mid size 5.25". Or instead of going from one pair of powered speaker to another

I entended on buying the AT-LP3XBT but found out my parents have an unopened (?) Technics SL-QD3, which one would you recommend?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r6d9Sj9-4gs The powered speakers with built in phono would be the simplest I think. But, I'd primarily do it if minimal components was my primary goal. The kanto YU4 fit the bill For me, nothing beats a working vintage turntable since your money is stretched so much fur
