From: Amazon Posted: Sep 09, 2008 Type: User Review Great Product

This turntable works very well for me. It came shipped with the belt unattached to the drive motor pully which is an advantage to me. I was assured that the belt would not arrive weakened and stretched from unknown months/years in a warehouse. The...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 18, 2008 Type: User Review Because I like records

I am not a sneering audiophile, just a dignified music lover who invested in hundreds of records in the 1980s and since. So I decided to upgrade my 20-year-old turntable with something reputable that wouldn't hurt the records but wouldn't cost...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 10, 2008 Type: User Review Another satisfied user.

I bought the turntable last month since I decided to get back into playing vinyl LP's since used LP's are so cheap. I like being able to read the liner notes without using a magnifying glass. :-P
I have a Radio Shack 50 watt per channel...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 09, 2008 Type: User Review Satisfied customer

After not being able to listen to my records for many years, I bought this turntable. I was disappointed when the auto-return did not operate properly and I had to return it. However, the online return was very simple - I took it to Staples -...

From: Amazon Posted: Feb 16, 2008 Type: User Review OK product, crappy seller

I received my turntable in, what I thought, perfect condition. "Super Saver Shipping" is actually USP ground from NY, which takes all of eternity and then some, to arrive in CA.

The turntable itself looks sturdy, but I haven't been...

From: Amazon Posted: Jan 11, 2008 Type: User Review Bad Vibrations

While looking for a replacement for my Bang & Olufsen BeoGram 1602 I found this Technics turntable. Since I have a very nice older Pioneer receiver, I wanted a turntable that didn't have a pre-amp built in. So this turntable looked perfect for...

I've owned two of these; the 2d,thru Amazon.The thing keeping the SLBD20D from achieving regulance is: Its tonearm's soulnuking habit of backtracking a 45r/m record's leadin groove and thus mathitting. That damn slidecontrol cueing is the reason,...

From: Amazon Posted: Oct 10, 2007 Type: User Review good

I got this for my husband. He likes it. It works great. We haven't had any problems. We did need to order a pro amp to go with it so it would hook up to our system, but you can get that from the same place. Fast delivery also.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 09, 2007 Type: User Review High end specs in a budget table

I must disagree with parts of two previous reviews.

Regarding the review of Aug 11th: I am running the table with a Grado Black cartridge and it works perfectly. As a matter of fact, it is essential to ditch the supplies low quality...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 30, 2007 Type: User Review Very good hi-fi turntable

This is a very good turntable for home use, especially at it's price. You WILL need a phono pre-amp (Amazon carries several) to hook this up to either a home stereo or the audio inputs of you computer's sound card.
