http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintag-TECHNICS-SL-D20...1QQcmdZViewItemwhat one sounds like a better turntable? and does anyone know what the differences are? the SL-D35 is only $19.99 starting bid and the SL-D20 is like $75.99 starting bid
Starting bids mean exactly nothing. Zero, nada, nyet, to get an idea of prices look at completed auctions.
I just can't say that cheap record players do anything for me at all. Most will result in a MUCH higher rate of wear on LPs, and the sound is often full of flaws. Speed variations, wow etc. might be ok, but rumble and low frequency noise are often abysmal, and cartridge options very limited. Moving up from a Technics 1200 which a decent table, was one of the best audio choices I have ever made. Its the step up to finer tables that make LPs still amazing in the digital age.
