I'm looking to get a turntable and a CD Recorder in the next few weeks, total budget for both is about $400-500. The cheaper the better!

The turntable has to have a pre-amp in it as there's no phono input on my current receiver. The CD Recorder should have an optical output.

Any reccomendations?

NexTag has all sorts for turntables.

Yeah, turntables are everywhere, that's why I was asking for a reccomendation. I have no problem finding them; I haven't bought one in 15 years and was looking for a suggestion a good one.
