Unfortunately, I just invested a good deal of coin in a Pioneer Elite microsystem which does everything - phono stage and Ethernet connection in one unit. No vacuum tubes, but the system is a true hi-fi with full range bookshelves.
I managed to find a manual for the turnable on vinylengine.com and unfortunately, I won't be able to play 45s because my dad removed the adapter. I hooked up the unit to my receiver and there was no audible hum which is a good sign. The cartridge is an old Shure/Radioshack model and a replacement stylus (eliptical, that is) runs about 50 bucks.
