the audio technica turntable you posted is a decent machine, main problem being however, aside from being mass produced in china is the built in pre amp makes the output sound "muddy". also, its full manual, meaning at the end of the record, it just keeps spinning instead of stopping and the arm returning.
There used to be gadgets you could put on your turntable that would solve that problem, don't know if they still exist.

But if you want a decent vinyl set up you need to be looking at Linn, Rega, Roksan, not Audio technica.
