I'm nearly 40 years old and spent the past 25 years building the best digital sound possible. My library is over 20TB of high quality flac and DSD. I spent tens if not hundreds of thousands on digital components. I was buying DSD when it was only a niche available on 2 websites. This was my first TT and hearing it sing through my maggies left me completely speechless. What have I been doing with my life? It's not like I haven't heard TT's before, but through a system I'm familiar with....the depths, staging, imaging, weight of the sound...reality. Simply unbelievable. Do yourself a favor if you haven't but are considering, buy a turn table and listen to vinyl. I'm taken and in the last week amassed a library of over 30 180g half speed LP's. The folks at the local record store already know me by name. Time for a new cart? The upgrade options don't end either. Whatta life.
MojaniUpgrading the stylus/cartridge is often the best way to upgrade the sound of your TT.
Id recommend you look at the AT-VMN95SH stylus which is a direct replacement for the cartridge that ships with the turntable. It will drop into place on the existing cartridge body without the need to disconnect the wires or realign the cart on the headshell.
Either the Shibata or MicroLinear stylus would be a solid step up.
Great audio quality and an amazing beginner turntable, I bought it as my first and have nothing but praise. I mainly bought it for the aesthetics as the wood tone and carbon tonearm has simply unmatched looks compared to other things in the price range. My only complaint is that the cue lever has more lube than needed and makes a bubbling noise when I lift it, but it's getting less noticeable over time as it distributes.
I wrestled between this Turntable and the AT LP120X. The looks alone were enough for me on this table but the quality and sound have been nothing less than awesome for me. Lightweight, easy to use and set up and it looks great. The best part for me is the rubber mat it comes with.
The mix of materials and colors is pleasant turntable falls into a good balance of price and features, namely readily available and replaceable parts.
Upgradable without feeling like you have-to straight away.
I haven't made use of the VTA, but I suppose it's good to have, should the occasion arise.
I bought this turntable for my first one and I really love it! Very easy set-up even for a first time user. High quality and reasonable price. I also love the way it looks, especially its plinth compared to the LPW40. I would highly recommend it as a first turntable!
The turn table is very nice. The packaging was good and all of the parts were pertected in foam. The plinth is a nice dark wood. It's a little bit darker then the pictures shows. Putting the table together was very easy. The audio is very good as well, Its so much warmer then digital. I would definitely suggest this tabel if you are looking into getting the hobby.
