World Wide Stereo is currently hosting a clearance sale that features a handful of of very good deals on some very good entry-level audiophile gear.
The Pro-Ject Audio Debut Carbon DC, which we once called “the most popular audiophile turntable in the world” because it is, is on sale for just over $400, down from $449. It’s a hell of a deal on a table that will last you exactly as long as you want it to — which is to say until you get the bug to experiment with something fancier. If you are not prone to getting that sort of bug, trust us, the sounds you’ll get out of this thing will be more than enough to keep you satisfied for many, many years.
Also worth noting is the PSB Alpha P5 bookshelf speakers, which are currently marked down $40 to $359. Like the turntable above, the Alpha P5 are the kind of gear that will keep most normal people happy forever. They’re a huge step up from the really small desktop-type speakers a lot of people use these days, offering significant improvements in bass presence and overall clarity.
If you were to pick up both of these items, you’d be in for well under a grand and you’d be well on your way to a vinyl setup that’ll last you damn near a lifetime.
