In the last 2-3 years two friends of mine started their audio--and vinyl--journey with Rega and both are very happy. I don't see how you can go wrong with Rega, really. Especially for a first turntable. They're well made, they're in the right price range, and you can get them practically ready to play right out of the box with a factory installed cartridge. If you're in the L.A. part of California I can recommend a dealer who handles Rega, McIntosh and others, and who would be very helpful sorting all this out. Sometimes you just need a bricks and mortar guy.
