Looking at Turntable: belt drive or direct drive?


Hello.

I am thinking about venturing into the vinyl world! I am really stuck on three questions: -direct drive or belt , probably automatic/not getting any younger/

                 -turn table with or without phono preamp 

                 -first budget purchase around $1500 or so , but does that give me a  

                  decent start?

My system:

Rogue Pahraoh II integrated.

Focal Aria 926 

Audioquest cables and interconnects.

Thank you for taking the time.

My recommendation would be a new Rega package with matching Rega phono stage. Its a great starter, easy to set up and musical. P3 plus MM phono & cartridge.
