Mike, Funny you mentioned Stanton. I'm looking at a Stanton T.92 USB right now. It does have pretty much everything I am looking for. Most user reviews I have read seem to very positive. But I am still looking.... Thanks, Mark E. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Myers" To: Sent: Monday, August 17, 2009 5:56 PM Subject: Re: Turntable question I have a Stanton that I got on eBay for about $200. It has all you described as necessary and it has variable speed controls plus basic speeds of 33/45/78 which I love because I have lots of old old blues 78s. Plus, it is designed for DJ use so it is heavy-duty. I love it and use it frequently.

It's very basic, but does a good job. Very affordable. Also comes with software to convert your vinyl to MP3s.
