I know nothing about turntables but I find myself wanting to get one. I've got $100 in Best Buy gift cards and this is $133...

Is it worth it? Or can I do better for less?

Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

Sony turntables are crap (IMHO)
If you have the bucks...try to find any model of Technics (Far superior). That is my recommendationMy current new system (step by step )
A/V Receiver: YAMAHA RX-V657
DVD Player: YAMAHA DVD-S657
Main Towers: polkaudio® Monitor 50
Wiring: NeoTecH KS1007 OFC High Definition Speaker Cable ( 2 x 2.64 mm² ) -
I would use that money for something else in BB. Keep your eyes on Audio Advisor, Hot Buys and Clearance, for a nice turntable.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

Keep in mind, you can also use your Best Buy gift cards at the Magnolia Home Theater stores in Best Buy. If you have one near you, check it out. I don't know what they have as far as turntable selection, but its worth a look.Receiver: harmankardon AVR235
Mains: polk R30
Center: polk CSi3
Rear Surrounds: polk R20
Subwoofer: polk PSW404
DVD: Panasonic DVD-S29 -
Ron, I have one I'm not using you can have if you'd like. It's not god's gift to turntables or anything, but someone might as well be using it. It's a Technics that retailed for just under $300 a few years ago. I think I have a couple years warranty left on it too. PM me your address if you'd like it. Then you can use your gift cards for movies or a Blu-Ray player in couple months.

You don't want the Sony. It will not be an experience worth looking forward to.

Avantgarde horns, 300b tubes, thats the kinda crap I want... -
