I am going to assume that you don't already have a turntable? For a full kit ready to go, a friend of mine bought the following for $238. It includes the software, direct-drive turntable, all cables, and mixer/pre-amp. ' Non-USB to Digital Turntable ' (http://www.dak.com/reviews/2020story.cfm?Ref=G&PM=LPCD&type=GSrch&Srh=usb_turntable&gclid=CLiti5z43pgCFRQhnAodfzGmcQ#in) After helping him set it up, I bought the software and mixer/pre-amp to use with my VPI Scoutmaster. So if one already has a turntable, the software and mixer/pre-amp make for an easy way to get ones vinyl to hard drive. If one has a newer computer, most of the time the on-board sound card is good enough. It is at least worth a try and if it's not up to your liking, one can always add a PCI sound card taylored to making recordings. If one just wants to do it cheap and dirty, Costco has ION USB turntables for $90. They also have a better model ION with S tonearm for $220 that additionally includes a direct iPod dock for those that use iTunes. -- iPhone *iPhone* 'Last.FM' (http://www.last.fm/user/mephone) Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, Vandersteen Quatro, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: SB3, GFR-700HD, Thiel 2.3, Second Boom Home Office: SB3, NAD C370, two VSM-1 Home Gym: SB3, Parasound Vamp v.3, Thiel PowerPoint 1.2 Mobile: SB3, Audioengine A5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60096 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
