What kind of turntable should I get?
I have a box full of records I got for free. some trance stuff some 70's/80's albums. I want to buy a turntable so I can finally enjoy them. What kind is good...Numark perhaps? also, I guess I'd need to buy a mixer and speakers to use the record player? I don't want to pay too much but I also only want to make this purchase once so it has to be good quality. thanks!
I was just googling and came across this product hope it helps you

my father was a dj for years and has over 3000 records so i know what you would need first of all turntables and records are very old so what you find is probably what your going to get. You do not need a mixer unless want to scratch the record and make different noises and stuff if u just want to listen to the records i suggest something cheap but good you do need a speaker to here the record you can go to best buy or radio shack and get something nice but cheap.
i hope my answer helps you.
