Pros
- Excellent packaging, double, one glossy box with beautiful pictures. A peculiar strict design in the style of "square gut". Cartridge and needle from AUDIOTECHNICA, easily removable and replaceable, there are cheap needles on sale. I liked the elevator, slow and smooth lowering.
Cons
- When you turn the network on and off, loud clicks are heard in the speakers. They can also be heard in the auxiliary amplifier connected via the line output. equipment and acoustics, which indicates the low quality of the built-in amplifier. Hitchhiking is a miracle. The rotation stops, the needle does not rise and does not return to its original state, after 20 minutes the power is turned off, reminding of this with loud clicks in the speakers. It is inconvenient to turn it on again with the lid open - the toggle switch is on the rear panel, but it must be turned off and on. You have to either climb on the side by touch, or lower the lid. Turned it on - clicks in the speakers again. Poor vibration isolation due to rather hard silicone, not rubber legs. Steps even along the palace nearby are given in acoustics. The speakers in the kit and the built-in amplifier negate the frequency range of the needle, the sound is like a cheap speaker, only the mids. The tonearm, platter and servomotor are located on the same spring-loaded panel, the rumble and rumble from the rotation of the platter and the motor is clearly transmitted to the tonearm, therefore, when the platter rotates in the speakers, they are well heard. Crooked platter because plastic, not steel, as stated in the description. Very inconvenient control. The latch of the tonearm interferes with the elevator, the speed and mode switches are right there nearby, they are barely visible. There is a mode without autostop. Why he is, I don't know. At the end of the record, the rotation does not stop, the tonearm does not rise, the needle cuts the ditch circle after circle. Probably nostalgia for gramophones.
