Hey great idear!

I have a general 'geek' question for everyone. I'm in the market for a nice used turntable. I started looking and B&O stuff...and although they make beautiful designs that sound great, many reviews have them as being very problematic, which may be model-dependant. I've read very good things about Thorens, NAD, Music Hall and Rega....mostly from audioreview.com

I guess I'm looking for some general advice from those who have vinyl collections and know what a difference a nice turntable can make. Also any advice on preamps whould be appreciated...I've seen some very small ones that run in-line on the RCA cables before they hit the tuner. Also any review/info sites you'd recommend would be great!

Thx!
