It all starts with the turntable.

At Mill City Sound, we believe that the real magic occurs when the needle hits the groove. All you need to capture the true vinyl experience is a good turntable, properly set up and adjusted with a good cartridge. If you have a turntable, we can give it a tune-up. If you need a turntable, we’ll help you and set up a great one.

Explore a wide selection.

New to vinyl? We offer a number of inexpensive turntables. Ready for an upgrade? Choose from variety of high-quality belt and direct drive models. Most importantly, we can help you choose the right turntable for you. And remember: We provide free setup and calibration – so all you need to do is bring it home and plug it in.

Already have a turntable?

We can refurbish yours for $49.99. This includes cleaning and lubrication of all moving parts, checking & recalibrating all turntable speeds, and adjusting stylus tracking, anti-skate, cartridge azimuth and tonearm height.

We can also replace the turntable belts, phonograph cartridges and replacement stylus/needles at an additional cost.

Don’t forget the cartridge.

Your turntable is only as good as its stylus and cartridge. And we have a complete line of them. Installation is free, too. Just bring in your turntable and we’ll take care of the rest. PS, Mill City stocks a complete line of styluses, so when you need a replacement, we just might have it in stock.

Stereo components & more

We also offer a full line of stereo components, including powered speakers, phono pre-amps, stereo receivers, mixers, Bluetooth & USB audio interfaces and other stereo components. Mill City offers a complete line from manufacturers including Audio Technica, Cambridge Audio, Neon, Ortofon and many more. And hey, if you are looking for audio cables and connectors, we stock those as well.
