I found this one that seems to have pretty good specs and not very expensive. There is a ton of these out there ranging from very little to thousands of dollars. I would like to keep it to around $100 or less. I am going to get the Ortofon OM 10 so I won't need MC capabilities.

Rick, I have one of the TC-750s and it works just fine.

Thanks Jack, It's good to hear about first hand experiences with this stuff. Especially one that I trust.

You can pick up a NAD PP1 or PP2 for relatively cheap.

Hey all! I just wanted to post that I just ordered some Glenn Gould on vinyl. Yahoo! Can't wait to spin them.
Yesterday I listened to some vinyl, and came to conclusion that I am going to use my Scott 222C as a dedicated vinyl amp. Tubes and vinyl seem made for each other sonically - they are warm, almost three-dimensional. But when I listen to CDs on it I'm not as impressed. The bass gets muddy, the high highs are really harsh. None of this is the same with vinyl - I've played the same record on both and come to this conclusion. It could be the Scott, but it's a very nice sounding amp otherwise. Or maybe it's my ears. All I know is that this seems to work for me.
Cheers!

Hey Rick!
I planned on posting the "results" of the TT experiment, but have gotten bogged down with that "DOA" hard drive, a few big proposals here at the business, my employee being out with the flu all last week and my not having a record cleaner so the two used albums I bought are full of dust, yadda, yadda, yadda.
I probably need another couple of days..... Sorry about that!

Just curious, that's all.

I picked up a few nice pieces today at the used disc shop.
1. SRV Texas Flood
2. SRV Couldn't Stand The Weather
3. Rush 2112
4.Robin Trower Victims of The Fury
5. Heart Magazine
6. Carly Simon The Best Of.
7. Jesse Crawford Over The Rainbow
What's nice is they are all in pristine condition and the whole lot was only $20.
