new turntable - back into vinyl - help!

Posted by Allan on March 4, 1999 at 18:48:35

I just picked up my BRAND NEW entry-level turntable. It's a Sumiko Project 1.2 with an MM cartridge called the Oyster. It came with the turntable so why not? Anyway, having been away from turntables for quite a number of years, I'm dumb as a post as to what's happening with them. My first question for you vinyl pros is about moving magnet vs moving coil - what's best? Or, to avoid the possiblity of starting a series of small fires , what is the general consensus regarding the two? And second, how much should I expect to be paying for one or the other? Thanks for any advice.

To SFDude - I hit the local Salvation Army thrift store today looking for anything vinyl and playable - came up with some interesting stuff too including an absolutely pristine copy of Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" and a barely opened Bruce springsteen "Born In The USA" - plus a whole Arthur Fiedler collection. 27 albums total for 25 bucks - COOL!!
