Thank goodness my wife decided to give it to me early, that way all the headaches could be cleared so that it could actually be enjoyed for Christmas. First, this is NOT A DIRECT DRIVE TURNTABLE. It is belt driven. FALSE ADVERTISING! I was surprised to see a direct drive turntable at such a low price. Well, I have yet to see a direct drive at such a price! I am not a DJ nor a full-on audiophile. I can tell what does and doesn't sound good, and vinyl remains the best way to enjoy recorded music. I have little turntable experience. Were it not for the internet and some quick learning on my part, I wouldn't be listening to Queen's "Night at the Opera" while writing this. First, the manual is a joke. Four pages are dedicated to the device itself, the remaining 13 describe the included software used to digitize the vinyl. Out of the box it didn't work. Then I noticed the dangling belt. The manual does not describe how to install the belt (why would it..this is supposed to be direct drive, right??). To get the belt on, one has to remove the platter. How? Internet query 1. What is the belt path? Web query 2. (None of the helpful answers on the web were about THIS turntable though). Next, balance the tone arm and set the anti-skate, web queries 3 and 4. A key piece of information not provided nor discoverable is how much weight the needle requires. OK. Ready. Lay down the album, hit start, stylus down, and poor Freddy sounds like a chipmunk. Web query 5. Here is where this turntable performs better than most, especially at this price. It has a sliding pitch control (which means speed control) and the side of the platter has a pattern of white boxes spaced such that when illuminated with the strobe light the optical illusion of steady boxes indicates proper speed. This is pretty cool, but not really as I had to figure all of this out myself. Oddly, the product description says the light is optional, but there it was. Now Freddy sounds perfect. So, if nearly all the above weren't true, this would easily get 4 or more stars. This is a turntable featuring tone arm adjustment, anti-skate, speed control with strobe, anti-slip mat, dust cover, pre-amp adjust, usb, all for under 0. The sound quality is above average, and would certainly be prime with a stylus upgrade. BUT, it is not a direct drive (an inexcusable misdirection), and requires substantial user wherewithal to get working properly. I've tried calling the company, but they are closed Friday-Sunday. I'll update this review once I get some feedback from them. We were also considering a Pioneer at a slightly higher price. Not sure if I choose properly.
