record turntables
I know you may think I am living in the dark ages but my turntable has broken. Yes I still play LPs. Anyone know where I can buy another one in NZ? I can't seem to find one anywhere and I have got lots of LPs.

Where are you in NZ dude? - oopps BoP -not sure who is over they matey
There are usb t/ts advertised on the web here....I'll find the linky if you want.
Also there is a hifi dealer on Khyber Pass Rd in Newmarket with loads of t/ts - from Mitchels down to Pro-jects....they even had a Goldring - just like my GL75 but 30 years newer!!

Re: record turntables
Places like 'trademe.com' and 'ferrit.com' should have them for sale.
Turntables are sometimes hidden away under the 'DJ equipment' category, if you are having trouble finding them.

The cheapest one that I have seen was in Kmart. I bought mine from trade me, but it was an expensive 'retro' type.
