ok,
i'm looking to dust off some of the old vinyl along with purchasing some new stuff as well. i need to pick up a turntable however and could use some direction/advice.

looking to stay under $300.00 if possible and will also need an amp as my receiver does not have phono inputs.

i'm looking for specific brands and model numbers if possible. i'm not opposed to new or used/vintage or belt-drive or direct-drive, i just want to get something half way decent.

any help is appreciated as well as any advice!
