what about the Teac 350-G which allows you to dub vinyl to compact disc.
then rip the disc to the hard drive if you want. clean up the files and
remake the disc.
you are talking about a lot of money for just a couple of vinyl restorations
though.

Well maybe I'LL have to settle for getting a cassette deck that plugs into
my computer and putting the cassette copy I have on the harddrive, and then
transfer to CD, but a problem with this is that then, it's a second
generation copy, and I hear those aren't as good as a first one!

Must say Dave, simply from my impressions of the ION USB turntable I saw,
the build quality didn't seem impressive so I'm inclined to think these
turntables are very basic performers technically.
I'd much sooner go for a Hi Fi turntable with magnetic cartridge and a good
pre-amp. These cost!
Either that or consider using a company doing vinyl transfer as a paid-for
service.
After all is said though, depends entirely on how critical you are about
sound quality. I've yet to start transfering my treasured vinyls but I know
it is going to be time-consuming.
Hope these thoughts are of some help.
Ray.

I'm just wondering what quality of turntable these will be.

Well, there were such things as Music Centres - as we called them here in
Brittain - which combined turntables with cassette decs. Still we're
talking 'old' here, and I guess you want a USB hardware device that does the
two.
I've not seen an USB combi anywhere for transfering old anoalogue stuff. I
know here a brand called ION has seemingly cornered the market in three
seperate units that do vinyl records, audio cassettes, and VHS videos. So
I if you've not held on to the various old stuff that could have done this
via hooking through a converter, then this is the only way to go.
