Is a preamp worth it for my setup?
u/Document_8 - I got a Kanto SUB8 subwoofer for $250 (holiday sale) a few weeks ago. It pairs perfectly with your YU6 from Kanto, with a simple sub-out cable that it comes with. Would probably enjoy it a lot!

Receiver and speaker for Rega Planar 1
You could also get all in one streaming powered speakers with phono stage pre amp from Kanto YU4, YU6 etc or Triangle or Klipsch. I have a spreadsheet with a feature list at www.mcmullon.com/activespeakers.ods. Having HDMI inputs for TV so the remote powers up speakers with the TV is ideal .Same pro

My first TT ! Pioneer PL-518, would love some guidance.
I think this stylus would work with that cart: https://www.lpgear.com/product/SHSR0025XT.html I know this would put you a tiny bit over budget, but I think this is a killer deal on these speakers: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/kanto-yu6-powered-speakers-with-bluetooth-and-built-in-phono-preamp--au

New to Vinyl and looking for help
Try Kanto YU6 and their sub. I tried the YU [4" ] and was enjoying the clarity and overall sound quality was what I'd call nice. A subwoofer really adds richness. The YU6 has a phono stage for the turntable and some optical inputs for cd playing. $399 and sub is whatever 200 or 349 model you want.

Need a new Turntable!
So, you have a couple of options: Cheap but functional, but you are likely to want to replace the whole mess in a year's time to upgrade. Or save up a bit for a serviceable system. The Best Buy Insignia manual turntable runs $120 normally, and was just on sale for $90. Unfortunately, they seem to be

Advice on adding subwoofer to current setup
Dude I think you have the same issue as me. I had Edifier MR4s which have no sub out. I know this is a different Edifier speaker to yours, but same issue. I bought a Kanto SUB8 subwoofer for Christmas (gifted) but I can’t use it yet until I do one of two things: split my audio at the source so it go
