The best turntable deals 2024: lowest prices on five-star record players

Pro-Ject Primary E: was £199 now £195 at Richer Sounds (save £4)
Our favourite budget turntable is a steal at its usual £199 price, but we've spotted a £4 saving. That may not seem like much, but we're excited: the Primary E is a multiple Award winner that nails the basics at this price, delivering a detailed, spacious, balanced sound that has ample drive and momentum. There's barely any set-up needed (everything comes factory-fitted) and while it looks plain, this 'purist' design is a great starter turntable for those getting into vinyl. Besides, the £4 saved here can go into buying more records...
