I picked up a in-excellent condition Technics SL-DD22 turntable with AT112E/U cartridge yesterday at a yard sale for $5 and about 40 vinyls for $7.50 . Since I do not have a phono stage I was wondering which might be a good option for me:
a. go in for the CA Azur Phono Preamp 540P ($99)
b. the Pro-ject Phono Box II ($159)
c. Get a cheap preamp with a built in phono stage (if I can find one) ($??)
While suggesting, please keep in mind, this is my entry into vinyl and so want to keep the prices low till I learn more. I intend to use it both with my CIAudio amp as well as my Mackie monitors. Thanks.
