I own this turntable. What are your opinions on these turntables?

They're rubbish: no better than a cheap Technics knock-off. What were you thinking? If I were you I'd start a hate/bashing thread about this turntable.

I think you're being a bit generous, Spiny.

Well, it is Friday! 🙂

For £4000 you could have an expensive Technics knock-off.

Ah yes! Friendly Friday.

I still don't have to be nice to Eric, though, do I?

Nah! Just tell it like it is.

I know they are a knock off of the technics 1200. But they are affordable and are good for the price imo and based on my listening expirience, a decent table.

... based on my listening expirience ...

... which was a Crosley (by your own admission on at least two hi-fi websites), so the bar wasn't set very high.

In this comment you said the sound quality of the Audio Technica LP120 is equivalent to a compressed digital file. Even an entry-level hi-fi turntable should sound better than an MP3. It's great that you're enjoying the sound of it, but you could get significantly better sound quality for a similar price.

After listening more to the turntable with good monitor headphones, it actually does sound a bit better than mp3's.

I'm hugging you, Eric, because nobody else is; I'm rather partial to outsiders...even daft ones. I look forward, with bad breath, to your next missive.

Technics all the way for the best ever DJ turntable produced to play vinyl.. Not the best on sound production though, unless you are playing pumping house 🙂

 

[spiny norman]

For £4000 you could have an expensive Technics knock-off.

Or an overpriced pre-owned Technics and a record-buying budget of £3.5k.

Have you been baiting it again?

Clearly you're fishing for hidden meanings, although I did have to check the spelling of baiting. Glad you put an 'i' in it or i wouldn't have known quite how to reply; I mean, this is a public forum and I'm rather shy.

Laughs!!! I'm a bit old for that type of stuff. I can imagine it being utterly horrible!!! However, I do have some Christian Death records which I really like!!!

Rumbled...and I'd kept so quiet about it. *scratch_one-s_head*

I love me some Caravaggio slaying on an album cover.

Surely you remember it from your younger days. 😉
