This is for DJ's, and for DJ's it's excellent.
By Francis J. Kane
If you're just looking for a way to rip your vinyl to MP3's, there are much cheaper and easier ways to do it. Check out Audio Technica AT-LP2DUSB LP-to-Digital Recording System with USB, Ion iTTUSB Turntable with USB Record or Numark TTUSB Turntable with USB for example.This product is made for DJ's, and as a professional DJ turntable it is an excellent product. The USB interface gives you a handy way to rip your vinyl to your hard drive if you're moving toward a digital DJ setup, but that feature is just icing on the cake. Its strong, variable torque makes it ideal for scratch DJ's or for fast startups. It's very solid and heavy which means fewer skips at live gigs. It has a built in BPM counter for beat matching. It can also be reconfigured for "battle-style" configurations. Pair it up with a good cartridge like the Shure M44-7H Scratch Cartridge with Headshell and you're good to go. I've used Technics SL-1200's professionally and I actually prefer these decks, and they are much less expensive than the 1200's.

Good, solid turntable, excellent for the price
By W. Defilippis
This is a solid, solid product (literally, it is really heavy) and for the price gives you a great value. I didn't buy it to DJ with, but rather as a recording device to transfer lp's and especially old 78's to the computer.One note, despite what some websites say, this turntable, like other high end units, does NOT come with a cartridge. It uses a universal headshell, though, so getting a cartridge shouldn't be hard. Most high end turntables come without a cartridge, so this shouldn't be a surprise.As far as the bundled software goes, the package with this isn't that great, but most of the bundled packages aren't much beyond basic recording. Audacity, which is a freeware product, is decent,but if you want to do really heavy duty recording it would be better to purchase something like Nero. This product is sold as a pro turntable, so it isn't surprising that it doesn't come with great recording software, since pro's will already have software.It can be finicky to adjust this, and the instructions are not necessarily that easy to follow. However, it isn't hard to set this up, and even the balancing, which some people complain about, isn't hard, and once done it makes adjusting the weight on the cartridge a breeze.In playback, because the unit is so rugged, it doesn't skip when you walk by it as cheaper turntables with and makes it a pleasure to work with. The other nice feature is that you can fine tune the motor speed, which especially for older recordings that were recorded too high, makes it easy to play them back as they were supposed to be. The unit has digitial metering for pitch, that makes this easy to do.One note, like many modern turntables, this unit features a line out/phono setting on the rca output. The phono is supposed to be for using in units that don't have a phono input, to stop you from having to have a phono pre amp. What I found, using this with a Bose wavesystem, is that the line out is the way to do it, the phono doesn't work, I suspect that is only needed on older units. Some people on other places have said they needed a pre amp, try unsing the line out if the phono doesn't work...Overall, a good unit, and a value for the money.

Great deck
By McDiffitt
This is a good solid turntable. I use it mainly for listening and sampling, and it's got good sound. The usb deal is really nice and easy to use. Now my Parliament is on MP3!
