Turntable

For Christmas, I want to get my mum a turntable but I don't know anything about this area.

Budget is £250 but can push it to £300

I would like a turntable that is automatic like the lever (?) automatically moves on to the record when you press play


I do apologies, i know nothing about turntables..


Any advice would be great

Thanks!

Check out Richer Sounds.

Will it plug in to an existing setup or does she require speakers and an amp?

Make sure the existing amp has a phono stage, or that the turntable outputs a line level signal... If neither, you will need a piece of equipment between the turntable and the amp... This is because the signal from a normal turntable is lower than a line level from, say, a CD player...

I have a ProJect turntable. They do them in your price range but they are manual, so would not act as you are looking for.

The aforementioned recommendation for Richer Sounds isn't a bad one. I have found them very helpful in past.

Hope this helps....

These things caught my eye when I was in Lintone for a bit of kit - but I've recently spent a fair sum on my Linn Axis needing a new power supply to buy a new deck.
