 excelent turntable August 17, 2010
Heinz Stecher
For lovers of acetate, this turntable is a good choice, it is easy to use, the installation is simple. The only thing that is very slow is conversion software to music files .... I recommend it and the price is reasonable
 simple and excellent August 15, 2010
Enjaume (New York)
Well-priced simple way to transfer old LPs to iMac/PC and then burn to CD. Worth every penny.
 Works well, but misleading in some respects July 23, 2010

This record player sounds great, works great, but I was pissed about two things. First of all, while you can play the record player through your computer, it cannot actually record the songs if you have a mac. It acts like it is, but then the files don't play and I had to research online to find out that the software is not mac compatible. Second, if you're running it through a stereo system you have to plug it into the audio input, NOT the phono input. I could have saved a lot of time and hassle if they had just explained those two things in their instructions. Hopefully this will help other people!
Works just fine, but isn't perfect July 17, 2010

This turntable made a great replacement for the 20 year old one I had been using. The turntable itself was very easy to set up; the included manual outlined the entire process. I did have an issue with the attached RCA cable being very short, only about 3 feet in length. I had to extend it using another RCA cable. The power cord is much longer though, and should reach the nearest outlet easily. The sound is very clear, even on my age-old system. I was, however unaware that the turntable has a pre-amp installed in it, so I was unable to hook it up to the Phono Input in my home theater system; I had to use one of the Aux/CD/Video imports.
I used Audacity to digitally record my albums on a Dell Inspiron running Windows 7, and the device was recognized and configured instantly. PLEASE NOTE that some of the settings may need to be altered, depending on what system you are running (the set-up guide explains this in detail). Other than a couple nuisances, this device was an excellent buy.
 Unsophisticated and unreliable device and software June 30, 2010
James Reck (GREEN BAY, WI, US)
My biggest frustration with this turntable is that the software doesn't always recognize track separation. It will record more than one track and treat it as one when it comes to labeling the titles. You'll end up with a lot of manual re-recording and titling problems. Seems like a good unit, but not reliable in consistent performance.
