  • Reply with quote
So I'm in the market for a way to listen to my vinyl collection.

The set-up I have now is completely jimmy-rigged and just takes up too much space to keep in a small ass apt.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an all-in-one record player, so I don't have to bother with speakers and receivers.

Price is an factor, but I'm not opposed to looking at mid to mid/high range products.

Never go for an all in one. Their quality is terrible, anyone can tell you that. You best bet is to gather up as much money as possible, and buy a used turntable and a pair of speakers off Craigslist.

This.

Well, maybe not the used speakers.. but that isn't a bad idea. I would still recommend buying new speakers, and a used 70's-80's turntable.

Yeah I'm trying to be as economical with my space as possible. I realize that I'm sacrificing sound quality, but I was hoping someone could recommended something that, in terms of quality, was better than the others. When I move into a larger place I can invest in a proper set-up, but for now, something is better than nothing.

Just save your money for when you can actually have a proper setup, don't waste it on something that will sound horrible and break right after you buy it.
