Bronze Member Username: PbdrPost Number: 21 Registered: Apr-05 | So I am looking for a decent phono for around $150; something with a built in preamp. Any suggestions on something decent in this price range? Refurbs are fine. My wife and I have about 30 records that we currently don't listen to because we have no player. Bacailly, we want a player so we can listen to these recrds, but will still primarily be listening to CDs. Any help is appreciated, thanks. |

I do not know if this unit has a phono stage pre-amp, but I recall there is an inexpensive Pro-Ject turntable that does, or at least has it as an option. |

A friend of mine has one. Lo-fi but high on nostalgia. |
