Yeah.you'd be better getting a new deck,as if you buy something s/h it could be missing vital parts and might not realise. I just got a project xperience 2 Classic for £599 (no cart)it has the well regarded 9cc arm(£500 on it's own) and is impeccably finished ,fitted a ortofon 2m blue and it sounds fantastic,you'll wonder why we ever bothered with cd's.9cc arm and 2m blue will keep that lovely sabbath vinyl in good nik.oh and as someone has mentioned,it needs a good solid surface,dedicated kit stand would be the next purchase if I was you.
yes the project xperience 2 classic sounds up my street . the chest i have my hifi on is sold wood and very heavy so will not move in anyway but understand i do need a hifi stand but can not untill my little one is a bit more older . will this till be an issue then that i have my hifi on a big chest as everything is out of harms way . how much for the cart ? as i just looked at richer sounds at this deck and its £745 without cart
The one really good piece of advice has been ignored.
Go and see a compedent dealer and get him to demonstrate the differences, an hour or two of your time will be worth a thousand recomendations.
Regarding equipment support, you have to get this right, a big, solid, heavy piece of furniture is the
very last thing to place a turntable on, don't take my word for it, get a demonstration.
