turntable for daughter

My daughter has asked for a turntable for Xmas. Considering a Project Debut Carbon Evolution. Maybe a Thorens TD 190-2 if she wants automatic. any suggestions or thoughts?

Not giving her my SOTA Cosmos

Nor will I give mine the SOTA Saffire, but we have similar problems… so I am watching what you do. 

For a first turntable and for the sake of simplicity. you can't go

wrong with an entry level Rega with an Elys 2 cartridge.

I second both choices -- Pro-ject or Rega. For a bit more expensive, any plug'n' play Clearaudio package.

Pioneer PLX1000 ($700) + a Grado cartridge ($90) is better than Rega! I have a PLX in my TT collection, with a Denon 103R.

I got my daughter a cheaper turntable for starters, because I have no idea if she will get bored with it and revert to Tidal on earbuds.

I got her a used Audio Technica with onboard preamp..

If she likes vinyl by next Christmas,  and she wants better quality, I can always sell the Audio Technica without significant loss of funds and ger her a nice TT.
