I have this one http://www.amazon.com/PYLE-PLTTB3U-D...ywords=PLTTB3U

It was about $100 new at a store in town. It has the phono preamp built in, selectable in the back. It sounds pretty good and is easy to use. It has USB recording capabilities that I've never tried. I think one of the only complaints people have about it is that it doesn't have a sturdy, weighted frame under it, so it may skip. I have had no problems with skipping, except in the case of warped records.

The stylus is very fragile and easy to break, a fact which I learned when I broke it.

I got a receiver and a set of speakers off craigslist for I think $35. I then found another pair of old, old speakers on the curb on trash day. The speakers I bought later turned out to have no foam surround, it had all crumbled away. Replaced them with the speakers I found for now, until I repair them or get new ones.
