I am basing my list on http://www.whathifi.com/best-buys/turntables

Weighing options. I have a vinyl collection spanning half a century that hasn't been played since the 80s. Time to breath new life into them.

It appears that Rega has the edge for having a local distributor.

I hope no one spits on me but I wish it had a USB interface so I can make ALAC.

May formal distributor din Pro-Ject, who also sells it exclusively.

In terms of value, mas ok Rega vs Pro-Ject since both have competing tables with Rega being priced lower.

I also tried ripping LPs when I had a NadPP3 with USB output to my laptop.

My advice? If you really need a portable file for your use, buy a version off iTunes. Malinis yung 256kbps AAC files.

Kung sawa ka na, i can get those pesky vinyls off your hands . . . Lalo na OPMs.
