Hi,
Im a newbie.Im thinking of buying a Technics SL-BD20D turntable.I want good
inexpensive speakers any good name brand.If possible the highest price $200.
Im starting out doing friends parties etc.So I dont need anything fancy.Also
what do I need to hook up speakers with turntable.Any help would be
apprecaited.Thanks

i.o.

wow,

first of all, that turntable is not intended for DJ use.
It will not permit you to easily cue or beatmatch if
that's the intended application.

second... ideally you won't try and connect a
turntable to a set of speakers.

Here's how this usually works in a mobile setup
(I'm speaking generally, everybody here that's mobile
will have a different setup).

You connect a turntable to a mixer which in turn
connects to an amplifier, which in turn is connected
to stereo speakers (home speakers are fine for house
parties). You can also cut the mixer out of the
package and go from the turn table to the amplifier,
but then how are you going to mix music???

if you want more info you can email me.
