Hi Everyone...I am hoping you can help me with a few questions I have about my turntable. Its a Technics SL-D3 from the mid to late 70's I would guess. pics below.
1. Is it a good one? I got it from my parents about 10 years ago. I replaced the cartridge about 5 years ago. I listened to it some through a relatively inexpensive stereo system and then packed it away until just recently.
2. Whats the best way to connect my turntable to my tomahawk? (and do I need a pre-amp?) I basically took it out of storage in hopes of being able to get some "vinyl experience" with my headphones. I guess a cheap radio shack RCA to mini stereo connector would work, but is there anything better for not much more money?
3. Can turntables be recabled? For now, I assume a cheap RCA to mini stereo cable will do the trick since I am already limited by the stock RCA connectors coming out of the turntable, but if I want to, is recabling an option?
