Realize though that the only things at the back of this baby are a red and white phono jack and the power source, so don't expect to plug speakers right into it using speaker cables. It works great and you can't beat it for the price. I ended up needing to buy a receiver to merge the speakers and the turntable. I recently got the itch to dust off my parents records and buy some new as well. I wanted something simply for playing the vinyls and this is just the item I needed.
This was definately a good purchase. I purchased my Sony PSLX250H Turntable on 5/22/09 and I have been very happy with the sound and value for the money.
Can't tell ya yet. I gave this as a gift; the recipient hasn't hooked it all up yet, so I'm guessing on these answers. He was delighted to receive the turntable, the price was great and shipping was terrific and fast, but the exact item.
It's certainly convenient to have a built-in pre-amp, since this stays connected to my Mac for digitizing analog. As others have noted, this uses the same stylus as the entry-level Audio Technica, namely the ATN3600.
After five years, I've more than received my money's worth. Check out turntableneedles.com for compatible options.For less than $100, this probably fits the needs of most people either looking for an inexpensive way to enjoy those old records or a simple way to digitize those same records.
I've been using this model turntable for about five years. The supplied conical stylus produces a muddy bottom end and tends to distort the highs.
Recommended. Other than replacing the belt once, it's offered reliable and satisfactory performance.
I reserve serious listening for my Music Hall MMF-2.2 turntable, which I also highly recommend.I strongly encourage upgrading the stylus to an elliptical for improved fidelity and less record wear.
Works good. Met need to transfer LP/45 records to CD/CT. Easy set up.
