what is a good entry level turntable?

1. How much are you looking to spend?

If you're oly going to be listening to records and not DJing or anything, the Numark TT-USB might be a good one. It's about $170. You can rip the vinyl to your computer if you want with it as well. If that's too expensive or you don't care about USB, the Audio-Technica AT-PL50 is about $90.

That's a more DJ focused site, but its reviews are good.

6. I'll give you my general thought on turntables

Just look for something made more out of metal than plastic. The more metal, the better. If it looks like the phono-arm could be something out of a transformers movie, it probably doesn't suck.

2. Yes

What is your budget?

this would be a great start:

Rega P1 http://www.musicdirect.com/product/74202

then get a small tube phono pre amp like this Bellari

and you are all set.
