Turntable recommendation


My wife and I are looking into getting a turntable. It would get light use as we mostly stream music via Qobuz. Current system is Bluesound Node, Yamaha CD-S303, Schiit Saga+, Schiit Vidar,  NSMT Chorus 25 speakers and NSMT EXP15 sub. We do not have a record collection as of yet. Based on current gear and the fact that it will get light use. What makes sense? The $379 Yamaha CD player gets light use as well. Seems like a reasonable place to start budget-wise unless its all junk at this price point.

@op, the best solution is to buy worn out records cheaply and look at the LP artwork and sleevenotes while streaming. I'm only being slightly facetious. A small collection of LPs is going to cost north of €1,000 and a decent vinyl source will cost at least the same i.e. to the standard of a Rega 3 TT plus cartridge plus phono stage of some kind. You could make a significant improvement to your system for that budget without diverting it into another source that, while sounding different, won't necessarily sound better.
