    AWESOME TURNTABLE!!!
    5 Stars
    AWESOME TURNTABLE!!!
    I can not for the life of me figure out why this is not on anyone’s top picks for turntables. There is no better way to put it, but this has everything you need and want and nothing you don’t. Sure it’s a bit higher in price on comparable players, but it’s well worth every cent. Set up was a piece of cake and nothing out of the ordinary when it came to setting up the tone arm and counter weights. It took me no time at all. From opening the box to installing it into my setup, was 20 min tops including packing cleanup. It sounds great and that’s putting it mildly! It is one of the best sounding turntables I’ve ever heard! Everything is upgradable and easily replaced!!! I mean everything. Just for the fact that it uses regular rca cables, by which I mean are not the ones that are permanently attached. It comes with a pretty good cables with a grounding wire, but I upgraded mine to gold plated. The usb recording feature is simple to use and works better than I could ever hoped for. It’s very well built. Has a nice heavy base! On my old player, I occasionally would get skipping from really heavy bass, but not on this one! Not once did I have that happen! It also looks great in my system setup. I really don’t know what else I can say other than I very happy with it. Highly recommend to all vinyl enthusiasts!!!
