Although I grew up using parents' turntables, I've never really had one of my own. I picked up a Stanton 8004 "gyropoise" at a thrift store for very cheap. It has no cartridge, though it runs, and everything has that "well taken care of but not used in a while" look. I'm wondering if this turntable is worth spending money on, or should I just try to find something else? If I buy a new cartridge are there any suggestions for brands, etc. Thanks for any help for a vinyl newbie.
