So I snapped up a £299 Sony turntable yesterday as I had my eye on it in the summer but teh £400-450 RRp was ridiculous.
The question is, is this the best turntable I can get for under £300.
I was tempted by the Rega P2 but I do not want to go over £300.
I currently have a Pro-Ject Essential II which is pretty good but I do not like the inconvenience of changing the belt for 33 and 45 rpm. Too fiddly for my shaky sausage fingers. Sweet sound for the £124 I paid for it second hand.
What attracted me to the Sony was the knob for speed change and also the sleek low profile looks, and also the lossless recording including DSD 5.6MHz.
