Morning....
right... I currently have a complicated living arrangements. My housing association flat is quite victorian in its living conditions and the housing association thinks that that is fine. However they have had to move me out whilst the lawyers argue.... it was supposed to be for 5 weeks... we are not in the 5th month.
All my possessions were put into storage and it is some strange storage company that puts possessions into wooden crates and charges a person if they want to open a crate to get at stuff. So my Thorens TD160 w/SME tonearm is in one of 4 crates (dunno which) and it would cost me £40 to open each box (and knowing my luck I would not find the record player till the last box).
So.... I am getting disheartened and depressed and so I have set myself a challenge.... record player for £15 or less. I want to buy some vinyl, take the blues away.
Now... all the "good" turntables are not going to be available to me - I know, I know, we are all snobs, it is why we are here... but quality comes at a price. So what we are looking at here is not audiophile... more... it will do. In the flat the housing association rent for me there is a Cambridge Audio A5 (I think)
