Right, well I got me a turntable today, and it seems to work for the most part. It's a bic 981, and it apparently needs a new needle. Any ideas for a new needle?
Also, being someone who has never owned a turntable before, I don't have a phono or any of that stuff, or at least for the most part. We have some yamaha receiver that IIRC has a phono input. However, the display on it is shot and the headphone jack is just flat out junk (Needs to be re soldered or replaced). I also remember hooking up my Q40s to it with a mp3 player for input, and it sounding well, not that good. Would it be worth attempting to fix this or should I look into buying a phono/amp/all those stuffs?
