FAQs

Where can you buy turntables?

You can buy turntables from audio specialist shops. You can also find a good deal on Gumtree because they have a variety of choices and you'll save a lot of money.

Can I connect my turntable directly to speakers?

Yes, you can, but only if your speakers have built-in amplifiers and your turntable has a built-in preamp. Your alternative to this would be to buy a receiver into which you could plug your speakers and turntable and that should work well.

Do turntables damage records?

The cheaper turntables do have a tendency to damage records because the components used to manufacture cheap turntables are not the best quality: the balance isn't correct which causes the stylus (or needle) to skip across the record and some even have built-in speakers which cause vibrations, which can result in skipping again.

Do vintage turntables sound better?

Sound is very subjective, but having said that, the vintage turntables will have been built better than the cheaper plastic versions today and that better construction will usually result in better sound.

Whats's better, belt-drive or direct-drive turntables?

Belt-drive turntables are great for listening to your old vinyls, but if you're more into the DJ aspect of turntables then direct-drive turntables are better suited for you because they have a quick start feature and get up to speed instantly. You can spin the record in either direction without causing any damage and they are very reliable.
