How good is this Turntable? 

I don't like the look, but output options are impressive, indeed. I can also change Audio-Technica cartridges. Good job! At $125, it's a really good deal.

Currently 159.00 on Amazon

@@mlthomas33 it is $159 before coupon. But there should be a $35 coupon to clip, which brings it to $125.

That’s awesome! I used to love to go to auctions. There’s not many where I live now.

That’s a really good point. I wish I would have brought that up. It would be nice if there was a simple app that you could use to connect and disconnect from

Like it was the sellers fault? What a douche move on your part!

I like the way you think

You have great taste 😁

I appreciate that. Thank you!

Just a note to say the Audio Technica cartridge I believe (AT3600) is the ''Carbon'' with a carbon cantilever and spherical diamond, hence it will not damage records at high weights - Only fancier stylus profiles will put vinyl distorting and melting pressures as surface in contact with groove diminishes and weights go up. It is a magical performer. You can pick one up for ten dollars direct from China (not Japan). Rega rebranded this and sell it for silly money. If you have any hope of getting a well engineered turntable built with precision and quality - Don't get this turntable I guarantee I know, I've been in the business for nearly 50 years. . Get an old Dual, Pioneer, Sansui or if you are feeling adventurous I can point you in the right direction of a dirt cheap but old thing that can transform into a ''super turntable''. I think you may have already had a few better decks than this. Do you do any precision engineering with regard your model trains? Regards Martin.

@@martinda7446 HI Martin; I also have the channel wasting time and do my audio stuff on that channel. I currently own a Technics 1300 from 1974 that I keep in mint condition. I am surpised how much cartridges are selling for now. I still remember my Shure M91ED (I think that was the model) on my Dual 1229 turntable. I have owned too many turntables to list from my past - even had a Thorens. My train hobby includes elctronics, 3d printing, photography, now videography and so much more. Cheers!

Yeah..if setting your tracking a 2.5 your anti skate ahould be around 2. Trust me I tested it at least on an ATLp120

@@tiborosz1825 Anti-skate is and has always been set to equal the tracking force. It has to do with physics of the arm and not the cartridge.

"ANY vintage budget turntable" which one for example, please ?

I'm not sure if I'd call it a game changer, but it's certainly a very nice turntable at the price point.

@@danielM7181 I take vintage to be pre 1980. You can still pick up a B&O turntable for peanuts. Not only are they iconic beautiful designs they all (apart from the 1000, very first model, though its still better than this) are built with precision, sprung subchassis with lightweight tonearm thet has vanishingly small stiction and friction - You might even be lucky enough to have it come fitted with a B&O moving coil, their moving micro cross designs being among the finest. It may even be a linear tracking tonearm for zero tracking error (Though their top models often are getting beyond 'budget'. They made music centers too so TT along with receiver and some with cassette too. Great value. It is like the difference between a Ferrari and a skip. Any Dual turntable. If you want a bit of DIY try a Lenco, still available at half the price of this with the potential of a 2000 dollar 'super deck'. Any Pioneer pre 75/76 A Garrard Lab 80 a potential giant killer, though these need a lot of DIY but cheap. There is more engineering in one square mm of those than that whole thing. Any Sony pre 75. Some early Sony models (late 60s early 70s) were Swiss made and absolutely beautiful. They used to be cheap.. Not so sure now. Well that might give you an idea of a little that is available. This thing next to any of the above is a joke. It does have bluetooth but so what and USB big deal - you can just plug a 3.5mm stereo jack into your laptop from line level source and record it. If you want more ask.

Looks like a cheap piece of crap to me. Evolve from a "record player" to a turntable for starters.

I'd love to hear you explain how to add Bluetooth for "pennies." Remember.....you said pennies. Once you go over a dollar, you original comment is moot.

Nah, it's good. It may not produce the best sound, but it doesn't damage the vinyl. I've had one for awhile and it's ok.

Fairy snuff

@@ionobelisk I've got albums that cost as much as this junk, NO WAY I would let them near this "record player". Anyone that says different has never experienced real Hi Fi IMO.
