I would find a Hi Fi store near you and find a sales person familiar with turntables. Have him show you what it is about then he can answer your questions in real time. He will try to sell you what is in the store. If he has several brands that may not be a bad thing because if you have problems you will have someone to lean on. Once you understand the basics then you can learn the fine details and apply them to your table. Down the road if you want a better table you will have a much better understanding of what you are looking for. Experience is always the best teacher.
Turntable newbie info site?
After reading the various threads here regarding TT specifics, my head is spinning. MC vs MM, cantilevered, diamond tip vs nude, need for separate phono stage, various tone arm types and need for set up. I googled and the TT sites are usually too elementary and don't address the more specific points. Is there a site for some one unfamiliar with audiophile TT technology but willing to learn knowing it is a steap learning curve?
