Review on 🎵 Tonearm Lifter by Q UP by Clinton Youmans

This kid really works. I've had a manual turntable for 20 years now and it's a needle killer. I bought this lifter hoping I could get distracted and not be there when the recording ends and not kill my pen and yes it works! However, there are two issues preventing it from getting 5 stars. First of all, you have to finally set the position for the trigger, playing it safe, and for records with medium and large labels, raise your hand to the point of contact. Otherwise, if it is set for small labels, it will not fire when the needle touches a large diameter label and damage may occur. So even after a week of fine-tuning the best grip end position adjusts) and before the last drop of crazy glue is applied to block the lift so it doesn't move on contact or use, the tonearm goes up about 10% the Zeit vor as the last song is listed on the LP with a small label. This is a frivolous and fair compromise for the freedom to roam the house with that coveted record on an expensive cartridge. Not that serious. Second, it feels VERY cheap and durability is an issue. I will add an update in 6-12 months to see if it stops Barry.
