If you're not trying to blow the bank, get the used OBH-8SE or the X-LPS, or even just a new Musical Fidelity V-LPS ($99-119 new). You can spend the rest of your budget on upgrading the cartridge. Having used an old technics with the V-LPS, I'll suggest that you don't need much more than that if you're not planning on replacing the Technics any time soon. What I did have to do was replace the $20 Audio Technica cartridge that was on the Technics when I got it.
Analog system under 500 palyer and phono pre-amp
I have 30 albums from the late 80's and don't want to part with.
I am kean to building a CD collection over vinyl; however, would like to use existing vinyl collection and may even build a bigger vinvyl library.
My concerns are cost and setup time. I have an exisiting Technices direct drive turntable which is 20+ yrs. old still works... I am thinking it's okay to keep and just get a phono pre-amp?
Any recommendations for phono pres under 500? My existing system consists of Mccormack DNA-1 and herron vtsp1A pre.
