Re: Budget record deck recommendations please

Thanks v much.
Funnily enough I had a systemdek after a sansui 222, and actually gave it to another friend , must be 20years ago.
Maybe I should ask for it back?

Re: Budget record deck recommendations please

It looks like they are commanding bigger prices than that now, £250 looks more like it
There’s a couple of pioneer pl 12d for £150, probably 3 times what they cost new!
Even a budget rega 2 is over £100.
Woe is me!

Budget record deck recommendations please

My pal is looking to get back into vinyl and so we’re looking for a deck probably up to £200 to get him back into it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Any suggestions...

Speaker cable, advice needed

My NVA a80 s have always played thro 2.5mm electric cable quite sweetly., solid core power cable.
