My son has decided to embrace vinyl and has asked for a record player for Christmas. I'll head the naysayers off at the pass - although I was a vinyl guy from way back, and sold hi-fi in the 80s, I'm a streaming fan. But vinyl is cool, and that's the route he wants to go. Of course, me being me, I'm not about to get him an all in one record player. I found a great deal on a Rega P1 and I have a set of B&W speakers sitting unused he can have. I need an amplification solution, but what I want seems unavailable at my price point. I considered vintage but it seems overpriced. What you can find at the price point is likely to need costly attention. I need an integrated amp with a phono stage and bluetooth connectivity, ideally below $300. The Fosi stuff looks interesting (although why they don't offer a stand alone integrated with those features is a mystery) but there seems to be so much overlap it's hard to see the woods for the trees. I'm guessing someone on this Forum has been down this road and might be willing to offer some suggestions on the best way to pair a couple of Fosi pieces, or other brands, to find what I need. I tried searching but was unable to find anything. Thanks in advance.
