i recently bought a pro-ject debut 11 in near mint condition off ebay, apart from the scuff on the lid, which im going to replace

prior to that id messed around with my mates rega planar 3

i dont listen to the radio that much, plus, a receiver can be added if you want a radio/dab etc, all the other extras on the record player result in a compromise in build quality and music output

Ok. I think I'm sold on the museum radio. They have some on CL and I can try before I buy. My granddad lost all his records yearssss ago when our water heater in our garage busted . Trying to piece my family back together

Peeped the project review. I want a vintage piece that's reminiscent of his child hood
