Well, it depends. I use it for the records that aren't in a good enough condition for me wanting to use it on my more expenisve turntable. It's fine for that, and if you just want some background music, or only have a very few records you wanna listen to from time to time. But if you're looking for the best posible sound quality, but still wanna keep it on a small budget, I would recomend getting a used turntable for that price instead. Of course, that means you would need a stereo to connect it to. And also either an amplifire or receiver with a phone input, or a seperate little box so you can connect an older turntable to a normal aux input, as the lever out from most older turntables are too low for being connected to an aux input.
Why do you use two turntables then? Does it damage the records? I'm thinking of buying this one since I have a pretty low budget but I wonder how much difference this one is compared to one that is for example around 100 dollars like the NIKKEI NTT01U and NTT05U. I have almost no knowledge of these things but want as much quality as possible. I also checked some used ones but have no idea which one is better or what to look for. Can you give this man some advice?
I use two as I don't like playing the records that aren't in too good condition on my more expensive turntable.. I would think the two you mentioned are a bit better, but I haven't tested them myself, so a bit hard to say. Personally, I would go for a used one at that pricepoint. There's way too many brands and models to recomend one tho. I would see what I could find, look at the condition of it, and do some reachearch on Google to see what other owners of that models have to say about it.
Hello, i bought the same turntable one month ago with the mention that i need to put the needle myself(186H model) and do you think that needle weight is high enough to destroy my vinyls ? I found out about this thing recently and im a bit worried. Also how can i change the needle? I cant figure out yet or when should I do that. Thanks
The weight on these or usually a bit higher that on more expensive models, and yes, I've seen people saying it can damage the records. However, I have't used mine enough to give my personal experience on it. What I do tho, is using this for the records I have which aren't in "mint condition", and were it wouldn't be such a big deal, IF they got damaged.. Not sure how often you can use the needle before changing it, but you'll most likely be able to see it (on the tip of the needle), when it starts to get worn down, and it's time for a change.
@@Yuriding Hi, go for it bro. I love mine, plays really well and the sound is so classy, also i love how it looks. If you want you can buy better speakers for it as I did for mine
I've been using it mostly on records that aren't that "important" to me. But I would be a bit careful using it on records, that you wanna keep prestine.
Anyone had the chance to see the interior circuit? Mine has a broken cable on the circuit and maybe can help me with a picture so that I can solder it?
I can't really give you a good answer to that, as I mainly use this for the records I have that aren't in very good condition in the first place. For all my other records, I use couple of vintage turntables, both of a pretty good quality..
Well, I wouldn't recomend this for listening to lots of bass-heavy music. If you're looking for something to use other than mostly for background music, or having the ability to play some old LP's from time to time, I'd rather try finding a used, or vintage stereo. You can find some really good deals, both online, or at thriftstores :)
I've never tested the Crossly myself, but from what I've read about it, and the videos I've seen testing/demoing it, it seems like that one, and this are about the same when it comes to things like sound quality. This one is cheaper tho, so if you don't wanna pay extra for the retro design on the Cruiser, I'd go for this one :)
I haven't really tried playing singles on it, but as the arm is of plastic, and don't have much weigth to it, that's definitely a posible reason. Try looking in local triftstores tho. You can find some great, used turntables, that aren't too expensive :)
Do the the speakers switch off when you plug in RCA cables?
It doesn't on this particular model, but you can turn the volume knob all the way down, without affecting the volume of the RCA output tho.
How did you wire the antenna? I cant seem to find a good position
I just had it tangled up on the rear of the player.. The reseption is pretty good here tho, so it worked fine for me.
Is it recommendable? 50 dollars sounds a bit cheap for a turntable, but I'm really not looking to spend a lot of money though..

Has it the 33 and 45 speeds?
+Justin Stefan Yeah, it does :)
Does it have a build-in amplifier or does that need to be bought seperately ?
It have a built-in amplifire, and speakers, so you don't need anything else to use it :)
Do you know if you can change the needle?
Yes, at least when I bought this, they also sold replacement needles for it :)

I want to get the same one, can you tell me If It works good or not, please?

@@Prototype43811 so didnt ruined yours records
@@Yuriding Nope
Can you connect this to an amplifier with an RCA cable?
Yes :)
Is that record player good for any record? Did it scratch records?

Not sure how much it helps, but I got these two pictures of mine.. (Not a close-up of the circuit board tho) ts84.tumblr.com/
@@TS84NO Many thanks, however it seems I have the 186H model, which has another additional circuit just near the transformer :(
@@dantescristo89 Oh.. Hopefully you'll figure out a way to fix it tho :)

Does it have a good bass? for hiphop beats
Well, I wouldn't recomend this for listening to lots of bass-heavy music.

do you recommend this more than the crossly cruiser?? i heard lots about how bad the crossly should be...

This one is cheaper tho, so if you don't wanna pay extra for the retro design on the Cruiser, I'd go for this one :)
👍😁
I bought it and returned it. My 7 singles were playing badly. Think the arm is to light for singles.
I haven't really tried playing singles on it, but as the arm is of plastic, and don't have much weigth to it, that's definitely a posible reason. Try looking in local triftstores tho. You can find some great, used turntables, that aren't too expensive :)
