Performance is ideal when the Stamina system is fitted

Tonearm does not auto-return after play as professional players with a live disc jockey doesn't need this feature as the Di-Jay is constantly raising the tonearm to change records - this automatic feature is actually very annoying. A few years ago I had an electrician turn off two nice little Panasonics I got from JC Penney because it was a pain in the ass. Even at home I grab my needle and put the record away before it gets on the label. I guess belt drive or direct drive is personal…

Pros
  • Full manual controls with start/stop controls
Cons
  • I can't remember but something happened

Bargain quality turntable

I bought this turntable because I needed a direct drive turntable with a removable head for easy cartridge swapping. The player was packed in a double carton without any transport damage. Installation took minutes with no problems. Plugs into an outlet with no wall warts. The power supply is inside the player (this is a plus for me).

Pros
  • Cast aluminum dampened platter with felt mat
Cons
  • Expensive

No audio snob and pleasantly surprised!

My last turntable was an old Sony that was part of a component stereo I owned in the early to mid 90's. I sold the stereo but kept my records whenever I moved and have recently returned to collecting. I needed a new turntable but my budget was limited to $250. I've heard a lot about the Audio Technica LP-60 and its low price, but after doing some research I found that it has some issues. After watching a few YouTube reviews (from various channels), I became interested in the Crosley C100…

Pros
  • Turntable with integrated switchable phono stage with detachable RCA output leads
Cons
  • Out of fashion
