This isn't a bad turntable all told. On the positive side, it is easy to use, has excellent sound quality, easy to connect to PC and amp and is a neat and nice looking. The USB facility will be a draw for some.
Major negatives though; the needle/stylus is far too light, meaning it skips at random points on even brand new records. There seems to be no official solution to this, such as buying a heavier needle, so the only solution is to weigh it down with blue tack or a similar object, which means it doesn't look nearly as good. For a new machine costing a fairly substantial amount, you don't anticipate such issues.
Another slight problem is that the recordings to your PC can be hard to execute in terms of the software.
It's a good player when it isn't skipping, but I think you could find a better value for money turntable.

Hi,
Bought this recently as I found that even though (or because) I have 3000+ mp3's I don't listen to music as much as I used to. So I decided to buy a turntable and records, you can't beat the aesthetics of vinyl and lots of the covers are art in themselves. I've no interest in converting stuff to mp3 as I've enough of them and want the warmer analog sound. This was the cheapest brand name turntable I could buy in Dublin so I did. It's by and large v good but I found that it skipped on records that had no visible scratches, the reason is that the cartridge head is too light, the solution was to put some blu tack on the head to weigh it down, Sony are one of the best electronics company in the world and its very disappointing that they didn't spend a few cents extra to test it and weigh the head properly.
