Pro-Ject turntables

Pro-ject; Rega; Marantz; Music Hall and VPI (i.e. Traveler etc) are below Hi-Fi entry level TT's that are a pure waste of money.

Anything sold as "Analog Gear" on sites like Music Direct and their ilk are a good indicator of mass produced low quality TT that should be avoided.

You can do much better...

Notec; so what then is your advice if all the under-$1000 TTs are crap? And at what level does a turntable newbie start at?
