Best buys on HiFi for Vinyl Records

[Highway Man]

I am thinking of setting up a record collection of Vinyl, I used to have some pretty serious kit at one time. Things have certainly changed since then and moved on, are there any record buffs out there that can advise on a good Vinyl player for every day listening?

This seems good to me, cheap but looks like it could be a good buy?

Bluetooth so can play through the tv sound bar, or with a bit of faffing, the Zeppelin.

People also ask
Is Micro Seiki still in business?


Making mid and high-end turntables, their quality of engineering is legendary. Micro Seiki turntables typically have heavy decks and precision engineering of components. While the brand no longer produces turntables, their vintage turntables are extremely sought after as their performance is outstanding.

Do they then require an amp to drive it or are they pre amps?

Found this which explains a lot and takes a lot of mystery out of Hi-Fi.

You’re going to need an amp and maybe speakers.

Lots of good kit on eBay.

I don’t really have any proper hobbies anymore, I’m probably too old for snowboarding now.

So I thought I’d get into music and vinyl. This is the record player I’d like in my basement “music” room

No amplifier in the turntable. The stack ( mine is a 1970's AKAI ) has all the necessary electronics
