Turntable buying advice - what's the best value for money

Turntable buying advice is not an easy thing to achieve, as audiophile grade turntables start at a few hundred pounds and range upwards of £100,000 - depending on the complexity and quality of design and manufacture.

I do support the common view however that there are diminishing returns with an increase in price - a turntable costing £1000 would not sound significantly better than a turntable costing £500.

I should also say that I very much support the view argued by some that it is the SOUND of the music that is the all important point here..... price of the system isn't everything!............

........... Anyway, what ever your point of view ... some notable turntables include, the Linn Sondek LP12, the Sota Cosmos, the Immedia RPM-2, the VPI TNT, Michell Orbe SE and the SME Model 20 and 30

So what I will try to do here is to offer you a number of different optionsof some good value for money turntables on the market today.

Many listed were rated by What HiFi with 5 stars - so you can rest assured you will be checking out the very best on the market today!

Where to buy your Record Deck

There are many places to buy your record deck. But I would suggest you have a look at Hi Fi Bitz in the first instance.

I recommend them because:

a) their prices are very competitive, include VAT and free delivery;
b) they have a fabulous range of record decks:
c) they are really nice people who want to help.

If you can't find what you are looking for at Hi Fi Bitz then try a search through Kelkoo.

Failing that try a Google search ...............
