Extreme low budget amp w phono & "reputation"?


Doing some research for someone who's going through some hard times and is currently on a fixed income. Are there any new 2 channel phono input equipped integrated amps or recievers to be found which sport somewhat of a "giant killer" reputation and which can be had for less than $300 and preferrably less than $200? Same question as per used equipment...

This unit would be playing a Dual turntable/Shure V15 IV, a mid-fi CD player, and 2 tape decks thru an early '90s pair of Klipsch Forte's. Thanks in advance...

A used Marantz or Pioneer receiver from the mid to late 70s. Classic stuff.
Know you said new. But used you can find an original Rega
Brio integrated with phono for about $250-300. Great amp.
HK 3480 will be it new. Looks great and matches your speakers.All of the used recommendations are good. Phil Brady
