I got myself a Technics SL-Q200 turntable for free. Somebody was throwing it out, so I saved it from the junk pile. It says "Quartz" on it and it is a "Direct Drive Automatic turntable". Also, it came with a free LP called "flying fish".
Now I know northing about vinyl or anything related to it. I see it has a line out on the back. If I were to hook it up to my MPX3, would it be that easy?
I don't know what a cartridge, needle or stylus is but I see these terms a lot when it comes to vinyl. Can somebody please enlighten me to what they are and how they relate to vinyl? I know the thing at the end of the rod on turntables has a lot to do with sound quality and the can be really expensive, and I know it's name is probably one of those three things I mentioned above.
Anyway, the brand of the one on this turntable is shure, and the bottom part which makes contact with the LP is pretty dirty with dust and hair.
