Does anyone have any advice on record players price range $150-$300. I've been out of this market for a good 15 years; back then I was spinning vinyl on a Technics belt driven turntable which is long gone along with about a thousand discs which I gave to a good friend (who later sold the entire rig). I'm looking at the Audio-Technica AT-LP120-USB Direct-Drive Turntable which is at the high end of my budget, and was hoping to get some feedback and alternatives from those of you that are still in the vinyl world.

I just bought a Pro-Ject Expression III turntable last month. Higher than the price range you're looking at, but I found it used for much less than retail.

Keep an eye on Canuck Audio Mart (http://www.canuckaudiomart.com) once you've decided what you're looking for.

I bought the cheaper version of that Audio Technica for $100 on LP Gear. Comes with new stylus and belt. So far so good.
