turntable for daughter


My daughter has asked for a turntable for Xmas. Considering a Project Debut Carbon Evolution. Maybe a Thorens TD 190-2 if she wants automatic. any suggestions or thoughts?

Not giving her my SOTA Cosmos

Has she any software? Is she serious about this or is it a novelty? If serious and with a collection, I'd plan with an upgrade path in mind and start with something solid. e.g. no built-in phono, good cables.

She has about 100 albums from her mother. Have no idea as to whether this is long term. Not gonna spend $1500 on a turntable for her. She will eventually inherit my Cosmos-Eclipse -SME5-Shelter-Herron.  Considering Music Hall Classic for auto turn off. Goodwins still going in Boston? Remember going there in the late 70's. Seem to remember someone named Jack?

Goodwins is in Waltham now. I haven't been there in a while though. I used to go to the Boston store in the late 70s also.

As long as she's okay with a unipivot. I think you should go with a PLX1000 and AT740ML but can see the appeal of the MH.
