Review on Crosley CR6016A RE Spinnerette Portable Turntable by Anthony Grover

Revainrating 5 out of 5

There is no main switch. On/Off is only used to automatically stop the player.

FAQ: I like this player. Some of the issues I read about in the reviews may just be misunderstandings. After reading some of the issues that others were having, I ordered one anyway. I'm glad I did. A slide switch on top of the speaker releases the turntable so you can open it. Store the power adapter and other cords neatly in the compartment on the bottom of the device. The bottom two sliders below the speaker are the volume and tone controls. I had no problem playing the player's speed. In this case, check whether the speed switch is set correctly. He gets up. There is no main switch. The on/off slide switch to the left of the speed switch only enables or disables the auto-pause function for the player. I got caught too! I flipped what appeared to be the master switch to the off position and to my surprise the turntable started spinning! It's not backwards connected as mentioned above, just mislabeled. This is confirmed in the user manual. One solution might be to use a label printer to add the words "Auto-Pause" above or below the power button so it isn't confused with the main power button. Another possible workaround would be to use an extension cord with a switch on it to turn off the device. It's also important to make sure the Phone/Aux switch is set to "Phono" first, otherwise the platter will not spin when "Aux" is set to "Aux". selected. No jumps, just great sound. I've even played a favorite 45 rpm record that skips/repeat in a groove on almost every other turntable I've tried. He played flawlessly. I would buy it again.
