Hello,
Total noob building a system. Focusing on used, not new. Been lurking for a month, learning, making notes, etc.. So far I've got.
1) Yamaha A-S500 - paid US$140, perfection working condition
2) B&W CM5s + B&W ASW610 Sub - paid US$450... one tweeter cone dented, plus no power cable for the sub that I'll have to pick up. But it sounds good and "think" (??) that was a great deal?
3) Turntable -- ??? -- this is the one I need some help with. I don't want the turntable to be the weak link. Right now I have the cheapie Audio-Technica APLP60 but that isn't going to cut it from what I hear. I'd prefer to search for a good used TT. Based on my system and what the used market usually has available, can you give me a tip on a couple of brands and rough price range I should be targeting? Kinda want to spend like $200-ish.
Thanks a million.
