I've gotten the thing running this weekend. I picked up a new belt from Main Electronics and I was lucky to get a slightly used donor cartridge (a Grado) from my girlfriend's brother in-law. My girlfriend brought some of her old LPs over and I must say, the vinyl sound is great in spite of the cracks and pops. There is a warmth that is just not present in digital recordings. However, I'll need to use a protractor because I'm getting some distortion on some discs, particularly as the needle moves towards the inner tracks.
Getting media itself, however, is the challenging part. I could literally blow hundreds of dollars on used and scratched up discs from local shops.
