 Solid Piece of Machinery July 20, 2008
This is a very solid piece of audio technology for a very reasonable price. This is great for someone who is just starting to get into the world of vinyl. Great sound right out of the box. Easy installation and operation.
Good for the price, but I have one question. May 22, 2008
This turntable is far from the best, but it's great for the price. I don't really have any complaints except one. I've read that this cartridge cannot be replaced. The manual says nothing about replacing the cartridge either. I've also found sites that sell upgrade kits for the AT-PL50 with a new belt, cartridge, and stylus. Does anybody know if it is truly possible to upgrade it? Thanks.
So far, so good February 22, 2008
I bought this after I dug out my old record collection from my parent's basement. My ultimated goal is to digitalize a lot of my collection, but ater reading a lot of reviews of USB turntables, I was not impressed. Plus, this one would not be that hard to hook up and record to disk, just need to get the software. This thing has great reviews everywhere and I LOVE the pre-amp so I can plug it in anywhere. For the last month I have been listening to record after record and this turntable has been perfect.

Not sure why some here are down on this product. I purchased it specifically to transfer my sizeable LP collection to digital, and was very, very pleasantly surprised at the quality of those transfers thus far. I Googled a couple of documents on setting up turntables to computers, and found detailed instructions on what turned out to be a simple process. There are plenty of easy to use freeware programs that can be used to make the transfers and split or edit the tracks. The whole process is very, very easy to master, and the turntable itself does the job very well. I've had no problems with skipping, speeding up, or any of the other issues that some have reported.
Obviously you aren't getting an audiophile quality product for under seventy five dollars, but if you are looking to play your albums one more time in order to bring your music to a more widespread format, this is a great item. I look forward to rediscovering many lost treasures thanks to this turntable. Simply a great deal.
 Good for it's price February 9, 2008
Does what it says, gives you basic record playing ability, with NO adjustments possible except for 7 or 12 inch disk, and 33 1/3 or 45 rpm. Has a fancy rubberband for a drive belt.
Adequate for the price, don't expect anything fancy tho. Selling points are that it's cheap and has a line out capability. Drawbacks, no tonearm adjustments, no suspension, no anti-skate/bias/speed/etc adjustments.
