QuestionJan 26, 2010
This item is great.
just a question. To be operational and complete do I need the SL 1200 + tbe Magnetic Phono Cartridge. Is this correct ?
According to me the SL 1200 has no needle. Please confirm.
Thanks !
 Excellent for the priceDec 23, 2009
Fully user-adjustable if you like to tweak, easy switching of headshells, solid and well-made, rock-steady platter, and...most important of all, somehow quieter than any belt drive turntable I've heard. Let's the cartridge speak for itself. IMO, A-T and Denon cart.s are the ones to use with this.
One star taken off since if it had auto-return and maybe a straight tonearm it would be perfection.

The right balanceMay 23, 2009
Cost/benefit curves typically have a "knee" in them. Below the knee you pay a little more and get a lot more. Above the knee you pay a lot more to get a little more.
As far as I can tell this turntable is at the sweet spot slightly above the knee. A rock solid heavyweight, impervious to vibration, bulletproof, sounds great...what more could you ask for?

It's just wonderful.May 21, 2009
This thing is great. I really don't understand why anyone would want/need to spend more. It has all the alignment tools needed. It can do anything and everything. Most of all, it sounds great. The cartridge that comes with it will get you started, but mate this turn table with a Shure M97xE Hi-Fi Phono Cartridge and you got yourself a wonderful sounding turn table for the audiophile on a budget and more really. I've been in to audio for a long time now, and money doesn't always equal great sound. I favor the sound of this turn table with the upgraded cartridge and good vinyl to my SACD player. It's softer, but it just seems to have more detail and life to it. I hate most audio reviews that abuse words, so I'm not going to bother. Norah Jones voice sounds AMAZING!!!! Hows that for simple? I have her on SACD too. I like the 200g vinyl and this turn table with the upgrades better.
Only down side. Don't use the internal amp. It has no bass. FYI, one of your older HT amps might just have a gem of a phono amp, and preamp outs on it. :)
