rick_m used term "Audio Amish" a while back and I gotta admit I like it, Why proceed with a 2-channel LP Playback in 2007! As Richard as rightly suggested if you really want to treat the students to a great system, your choice of equipment is absurd. Even with the shallow catalogue, a SOTA surround system will knock the spots off any 2-channel system LP or digital. And will be a lot a more convenient and a lot more consistent reproduction.
It is one thing to indulge a hobby on "classic" audio equipment, it is quite another to attempt to portray it as the pinnable of audio reproduction. My suggestion ask the KR for some suggestion on decent MCH system, for thing is sure, it will come closer to "real" thing than any 2ch can dream of.
