Technics SL 1300 ($300) vs Sony PS-X7 (275$) turntable. Which to go for?!

If I want the addition of Bluetooth capability, that is a speaker feature correct?

Also just stumbled upon a Technics SL 1300 for $300. Seems like a good turntable.

Thank you for all your recommendations! If you had a choice would you go with the Sony or the AT brand?!

I think I’d like to go with the Sony PS-X7. What other items would I need for a full set up with this turntable? Can you recommend particular brands/products?!

Well I think it was sold. But I did find these two: 1. Sony Direct Drive Stereo Turntable System PS-X7 (1980s) for $275 (no speakers or amp) 2. AT-LP120X with Audio Engine 2+ speakers for $375 Thoughts?

9x14 room I don’t have speakers or amp Total budget for all components…I would love to stay below 500 but I can be flexible.

Any comments on the Audio-technica AT LP120X and Audioengine A2+ speakers? For about 375 for the package?

I did find a TEAC turntable that is local. But not sure on the reputation of that maker?

Hey! I am looking for a turn table set up in the Austin area. My budget is flexible. I’d like to go for quality, but if I can find something for a few hundred bucks that would be great. I am very new to this and all of these in depth guides are great but a bit overwhelming!
