My father who is about to turn 90 would like to play his classical records, he previously owned a Sondek, Akito K9 Lingo, but due to being a little clumsy wasn't confident to use it and accordingly we sold the deck.

He has said he would like to buy a budget deck to revisit some of his recordings and as such I would like recommendations please, his remaining system is Quad 34/405 with Rogers LS7, budget up to a maximum of £200.

Thanks in advance

Get a nice fully auto one.Sony do a lot of decent ones like this

As they are auto you can pick up nice ones fairly cheap. Audiophiles like manual...that one needs a lid but you can pick up dust covers easily enough and its i! Your neck of woods
