Starting out (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for some advice starting out with a budget audiophile set up. I have a smallish vinyl collection (100 records) and a large collection of CDs from my childhood that I want to set up in my new place. Until now I’ve always had cheap rubbish players for them because I’ve been listening to most of my music via streaming and headphones (Sony xm4).

I’m planning to listen to my collection in a room in my home again and I was wondering what people would recommend in terms of a turntable, a cd player, and speakers. I’m a total noob so I’m not even sure if I need an amp/ receiver etc. I’m willing to spend around €500 (based in Europe) and would like gear that has a small footprint.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Yes! Damn good for a first turntable, had it for just under 6 years. That was the older RP1 but I've heard that the Planar 1 is just as good, a bit more refined even
