I’m looking for a player that’s an upgrade to my suitcase one. I’d like one under 200 (300 if I have to), a tone arm with a counter weight, and a decent MM needle.

Optional:
- built in pre amp and headphone jack
- anti-skate
- belt or direct drive (either as long as it keeps accurate speed

I was looking at Best Buys brand Insignia turntable. It has everything in the list above, but I’m not sure if the build quality is good enough long term. Thoughts? Any recommendations?

I’ve been collecting more records as of lately, and I’d like to listen to them with a better turntable. The one I currently have is a suitcase I got for Christmas a few years ago. I’ve seen that the Insignia table is a good deal when it comes to features. But idk if the sound quality will be much of a step up compared to the suitcase. I also saw that the Victrola VPRO-2000 is a good one that has more features than the Insignia. Any recommendations? I have limited space, hence why I want a player that has everything ready to go out of the box.
