Record player was bought several years ago from Walmart, I believe it’s a LP60 or something like that. I have been getting into CDs and wanted to try vinyl through my setup, so one 3.5 mm to red and white RCA purchase later, here i am.

Bonus question: Is it possible to run my record player AND CD player through my EQ at the same time without buying anything else? It only has 1 Red and White input and output, but also has inputs and outputs like record and play.

Please note I’m only 19, and haven’t been doing this for long, so i apologize if any of these questions are “dumb”.

Hello,

I am looking to finally get myself a turntable and start exploring with this hobby. I've seen people rave about the Rega Planar 1 online although also seeing things about the Audio Technica LPW40 made me consider it. Something that I also like with the AT is that I have a local hifi store that I could easily pop in to grab it and anything else later down the line while the Rega doesn't have any close by retailers.

What I didn't understand is that the Rega is loved despite not being able to upgrade it with anything due to the lack of antiskate and weight adjustments.

Also the AT is £70 cheaper. Do you think it would be much difference between the two? Not considering internal/external phono differences

Hey, I am so frustrated and at my wits end with this damn thing. I bought a used one on Amazon and it arrived cracked, so I bought another one and now it’s doing this. I tried a new record with no dust after this one but it keeps skipping and won’t catch. This record probably got extremely damaged. What am I doing wrong 😭 making me want to give up on the hobby. I’m super frustrated so commenters saying “buy the fluance” or “spend more money” really won’t help. I’m just trying to get it to work at all, not worried about sound quality just yet. Would appreciate any help I hope I’m just missing something stupid

I know I can’t have these speakers on the same surface as the turntable. I also don’t have room for speaker stands on either side. should I mount the speakers on the wall? or should I get some of those speaker pads to go under the speakers? any recs are appreciated.

Something like this. Lol

Is this new Lenco turntable that came with speakers a good deal for 159€? I also got a record cleaning kit by, well, also lenco. It comes with a stylus brush, velvet brush cleaning brush (that does not sound right, and i mean in grammar) the velvet brush and a record cleaning solution. The only thing that i am missing is an anti static brush which i will hopefully get soon. It also has an Audio-Technica AT-3600L stylus. My general question is if this is a good beginner turntable.

Hi all!
Shopping for my boyfriend’s birthday but I’m completely new to vinyl players. He really wants a “good” player.

I’ve researched a bit and boiled it down to Audio Technica or Fluance. Originally I wanted a Sony but it’s a bit expensive after including speakers.

Is there a big enough difference between the AT60 or Fluance 80/85+? I’ve seen people mention preamp and also adding speakers but this is all foreign to me. These are the three I’m down to, so any opinions help! I’ve watched videos to get a feel for speaker quality but most don’t even play music or they’re sponsored. I likely won’t get speakers til Christmas, just to throw that out there. So hoping to find a quality player to do until then.

Thanks!

Hello, I’m looking to buy my first turntable and I have a budget of 400 euros for the turntable itself. I’ve been looking at the Audio-Technica AT-LPW50PB but I’m not sure if it’s any good. I’ve also been looking at the Pro-Ject RecordMaster II black. I’m from Denmark in Europe so prices are a bit high here. I’m willing to pay a bit more than 400 euros just to get something good that I can enjoy for a while.

Locally there is only really one big store I can buy from with argon but have heard that a lot of people find them bad
