So my old turntable is giving me problems, and it may be time for a new one. Anybody have an opinion on what's the best to get under $175? I'm not a vinyl junkie and don't intend on becoming one, but do have a sizeable amount of vinyl that I listen to that I don't intend to replace with digital media.
Is direct drive better than belt drive? My old turntable is belt drive. My belt wore out and I replaced it with a new belt, and after a couple of plays with the new belt, it appears that it now is playing my lp's too slowly.
