Hello Casey, I said in an earlier post something about JVC turntables. Me being a blind person, I have to have a pare of turntables that are easy to take care of. I've tried everything from Pioneer to SONY. I have even tried some of the higher end turntables. I've found that JVC is easier to take care of for me a blind man. It is so easy to replace the needle in those, my 6 year old niece can do it. Now to answer your questions about witch turntables are good for home use, everyone has different views about that. And as for high quality sound, if you are making other recordings from those old records, JVC has watt's called a studio cartridge for that purpose. To me, they sound excellent! But again, some other people may have different views on that. Now what to look for in a turntable, look for a turntable that has really good tracking. Also, consider the type of cartridge. Some have moving magnets, others have moving coils. But that all depends on what kind of an input your stereo receiver can receive from a turntable. Also look for a turntable that has really good equalization. Because really good equalization verses pore equalization determents how the turntable will sound. Unless it's an older one, don't buy Techniques. Because the turntables that they make today, are junk. I found the same thing to be true about SHARP RCA and SANYO. The turntables that they made in the mid to late 1980's and early 1990's were good turntables. But however, your best bet is to try it before you buy it. A lot of stereo shops will let you do that. This is true here in the US, but I don't know how true that is in the UK.
