Good to know
- No built-in phono stage — use an amplifier with a phono input or add a separate phono preamplifier.
- Sold without a cartridge fitted — budget for a compatible cartridge and setup before first use.
- This is a used-market purchase. Ask about condition, originality and service history, especially the belt, bearing and stylus.
