Analog point of entry...

So, my only source to day is digital: Cary 303/300. I'd like to be able to play vinyl for the following reasons (not in any order):

1. I have lots of old albums that haven't been released on CD yet. And I'm sure there are more out there

2. I like the "hand on" idea

3. I believe in the benefits of this medium's unique sound.

My question is, what would be the price of admission - used - (incuding table, arm, cartridge AND phono pre) in order to match the fidelity of my CD Player.

Or, put another way, I don't vinyl playback that sounds junky compared to my digital playback.

thanx!

its pretty hard to find a turntable on audiogon that won't go toe to toe with any digital front end. check out thorens(vintage only), ariston(vintage only),linn,oracle.....get a great cartridge and you're 'back to where you once belong'

There are a bunch of used LP12's for pretty cheap on the "Gon right now. I love mine. It's a "hands on" TT.

Also, who's this friggin' Marco or friggin' Jax2? What, the guy's got more than one friggin' name? Yeah, he's friggin' silly alright.
