Hello,   I wanted some recommendations on a forgiving turntable phono cartridge for not so great quality records.                                                                                   Thanks.

I'm getting serious about resurrecting my Technics SL-1200Mk2's which I bought used (crappy gold spray paint finish included) about 10 years ago but I'm not sure whether or not I should just sell these and move on to some decks in better condition. They've been sitting at my parents' house...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW that turntable is the same model as mine. it's probably even better since it has a grado cartridge and mine is still the factory stock one. bah. under $25? it sounded fine in my college days out of a sony reciever - but now that my Solo is...

Ok I've been listening to cd's and mp3's for way too long now. I wanted to experience the rich sound of vinyl and am thinking about getting some turntables. I listen to mostly electronic music, practically trance music all the time. Im looking for some more high end names. Something that looks...

I bought a used Pioneer PL-518 turntable off of Craigslist a few years ago and it came with a Shure Tracer 1 cartridge. Unfortunately, the stylus was recently broken during a move. While the manual recommends a N97HE as the replacement stylus, this website mentions that one can also a N97ED...

OK, I know this is an "Apples vs Oranges" question, but I'm going to ask.  I recently upgraded my Phono setup from a budget table to something more midfi.  I like the sound, but being an want-to-be audiophile, I did an A-B comparison; analog vs digital.  They were close, closer then I would have...

Hey everyone, I haven't been on here in a while but figured I could get some direction on this as I've been going in circles lately. I’m looking to spend around $1000 to get back into vinyl (turntable and phono pre). What do you like from the products listed below? Or is there anything else I...

I am thinking about entering the world of vinyl after 'discovering' some of my dads old records and I am wanting some advice on purchases. So far, what i'm thinking is a Project debut carbon to a Cambridge Audio 640p-b or Azur 651p.  My budget for a tt+turntable is around $650 Aud, but is this...

So, being the relatively young person I am in my early 20's, I never owned vinyl. I've recently gained a little interest and picked up a few of my favourite albums on vinyl as I've found them at decent prices.   I currently own a set of KRK RP6 monitors and the KRK sub. These are powered...

OK, this might be a silly question, but here we go. I have a Ray Samuels Hornet and Untrasone Ed8.   On the LOWEST gain setting, I turn the volume up to a maximum of about a third of the way around when listening to my ipod.     I am thinking about getting a turntable and I understand...

So, I've discovered that here in South Africa old hi-fi equipment can be found relatively cheaply. I picked up a NAD 302 amplifier for about $80 and a NAD 502 cd player for $35. They'd probably be even cheaper abroad, but I'm pretty chuffed with the purchases.   I'm trying to source a good...

I am only 14 so im pretty tight as far as money goes can you guys recommend some speakers to me that will cost roughly $100 to $200 that perform well?

So currently I have a pretty average Sony LX-300USB turntable for vinyl. I just replaced the needle and it sounds good, but not like fantastic. My Uncle just gave me his old turntable, the table itself doesn't look too expensive as it is an old Kenwood KD-48F Belt Driven auto turntable. It has...

Sorry if this thread is in the wrong forum, feel free to relocate it mods!   So as many of you know, most people use mp3's and what not nowadays to listen to music on the move but most music enthusiasts still highly focus the majority of their music collection around vinyl. I think it's now...

Hi Hoping someone out there can help me I have 3 turntables here and I was hoping if someone out there can give me some advice about which one would best the best to get going again. All are intact but need some TLC. They are Onkyo Y200, Pioneer PL400 and Rotel RP100. Hoping you can help. Cheers...

Good evening fellow head-fi'ers.   I'm looking to get back into vinyls. The problem is that when it comes to vinyls, music on vinyls, I have no idea of what I'm talking about.   I used to listen to vinyls alot when I was a child. Nowadays most of the music I own is on CDs or bought...

My Technics SL-Q202 died a few months ago but I have recently inherited a Dual CS5000 TT but I am currently having issues when playing any vinyl. On any record that I play I experience way too much distortion, specifically with the vocals, which appears to increase as the record continues to...

Turntable plays great, except when the last song is done and the tonearm starts to move into the blank area that sets up the arm to return to the start position. The problem here is that the tonearm is trying to return to start before the arm has lifted off the record and I get this brief...

First post, hope it goes well.   Hi. Greetings? Salutations.   I have about $200-300 budgeted for a turntable system. I'm starting from scratch, have some records already, and will be listening mostly to classical, orchestral and solo piano with some opera if it turns up. Oh and some...

Hey guys,   I'm looking to get into vinyl on a (relatively) low budget. I looked around and I can get a Music Hall MMF-2.2 for about $250, slightly used. This seems like a pretty decent deal to me, but I'm not sure if I should go for it. I'm pretty new to this stuff, so I was wondering if it...

What would be the best turntable i could get for 100$. I will be using headphones.

A little help would be appreciated.   I'm currently listening to vinyl on my turntable though a Sony receiver (from the '90s), and mainly using Grado 225i headphones. The receiver headphone jack sounds terrible, and I'd like to use a proper amp. But I'm not sure how a turntable setup would...

OK, if we can put our normal skepticism about the mags aside, I'd actually like to hear this recommended combination from our friends at Hi-Fi Choice, even if the sum total is probably above my budget:   Source:      Roksan Radius 5.2 and Nima Tonearm / Rega Saturn CDP Amp :         Naim...
