LPs to CDs 
2008-08-13
This turntable worked as well as you can expect. Everything about setting it up was easy but when it came time to use the enclosed software, PYRO Audio Creator and Audacity, I ran into trouble. I couldn't get either one to work and ended up using a Roxio program (which was totally up to the job). For $100 it's worth it.
a decent turntable with built-in preamp!

Just a note: contrary to what this product's name might suggest, this is not some sort of fancy computer-ready turntable that will interface directly with your computer. Instead, this is essentially an ordinary turntable with a built-in preamp, that also happens to packaged with all the cables, adapters, and software that you need to plug directly it into your computer's sound card for the purposes of ripping vinyl.
Full Disclosure: I have never used this product with my computer and I've never used the software that came with it. I bought this roduct because it was inexpensive and I simply use this as the turntable that is plugged into my stereo so I can listen to records, and it does that very well!
If you have a stereo that doesn't have a PHONO input, the built-in preamp will allow you to plug your record player into any AUX jack, and you won't need to turn your volume all the way up just to hear anything. If you DO have a PHONO jack (or if you have a standalone preamp), you can simply flip a switch and turn the preamp off, and it's a regular turntable.
I didn't give this 5 stars because I've noticed that, compared to my old turntable, the sound is *slightly* muddier and not as crisp. Most people wouldn't notice, but I am pretty anal. Still, I haven't rushed out to buy a new record player. This one works just fine, and I'll probably run it into the ground. If you can get it cheap, I recommend it!
Never lose the oldies!!

Awesome machine that turns your smoldy oldy vinyls into cd's-right on your PC AND saves your music files. Quick and inexpensive-perfect for the baby boomers who are holding onto Deep Purple and Alice Cooper vinyls!!
Great!

This item did exactly what I needed it to do - convert LP's to CD - easy use, great software and great price!
Burst a bubble? 
2008-06-07
There are many positive reviews of this product. My expeience is different. I found the turntable flimsy and far from high quality. After playing five albums, the turntable failed. The motor began to run erratically, causing major distortion in sound. If you purchase this item, I wish you luck. Some have found it; I did not.
Software a little complicated

Great turntable !

Great turntable. I am having so much fun just listening to all my old records through on my stereo that I haven't had a chance to use it for converting all those albums to mp3. The automatic start/stop is great, no more scratched records. Also having a dust cover is great too, which is one of the reasons I bought the Audio-Technica over the ion.

Had problem getting started . Instructions were a little fuzzy.
Did not tell you that you had to register first before it would
play. That piece of imformation would have me a lot of time.
they need redo their book. Also did not know what the (time remaining)
meant. Does that mean it will quit recording at some point.
Other than that it works fine.
