Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: LIved and went to hell Comment: The first person on Amazon reviewing the Ion TTUSB Turntable said "he died and went to heaven." "I lived and went to hell." It takes someone with a computer background to figure out the complicated recording system. It is easy to record. Problem is finding what you recorded and a place to store it. I gave this a one star rating because I wasn't allowed to give it a zero-or lower. It took me three hours to record 4 songs. At this rate, I'll have to live until to 180 years old. But I have better things do do with my life than spend the remaining time getting aggrivated. I also hear ION doesn't take to returns. I wonder why. It is a surprise that a class company like Amazon.com would even see a productas bad as this. Live and learn. Customer Rating: Summary: Great product!!! Comment: Great product! I purchased it as a birthday present to my father and he absolutely loved it! Friendly use! Customer Rating: Summary: This Turntable Sucks Comment: It doesn't take an audiophile to realize that this turntable is terrible. First of all you have to assemble much of it yourself. You have to attach the belt, the arm, the cartridge, and plate. The instructions for assembly were not too clear at some points. Once assembled the first thing one notices is that it's made almost entirely out of plastic. Very cheap. One of the other reviewers also mentioned that the cord is hardwired into the turntable, making it impossible to get a longer one if need be. Not a good design choice. It also has two giant on/off switches on each side that mimic the design of a DJ turntable. This feature is useless unless you plan on using the turntable to DJ which I would not advise. Recording audio from the turntable is even worse. When attached via USB the the turntable makes an annoying hum that can be heard in the finished recordings. The EZVinylConverter software that comes with this product is very poor. It has some major latency issues. Not to mention that it is barely configurable and relies on iTunes to do much of it's work. The product also comes with Audacity, which is much better software but is already freeware and is difficult to use for lay people. In summary: poor sound, low quality software, bad design, and cheap construction are what you get with the TTUSB. Try something else. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Invention Comment: After looking for years for a device to convert vinyl to computer files, it was great to see that someone finally came up with a turntable that would USB directly into the computer. Fantastic invention. Works great. Customer Rating: Summary: Piece of junk Comment: I bought this from an on-line store about 9 months ago (not amazon). Because I had problems with wiring in my home stereo, I only just recently was able to hook this thing up to my system. This table is lousy. I wish I could give it 0 stars because it doesn't do the most important thing it is supposed to do---- play a vinyl record with the sound quality you expect. My circa 1984 Magnavox all-in-one stereo system does a better job here. First of all, the RCA A/V cables are hard wired into the machine and are only about a foot, maybe 18 inches long. So they barely reach to where I have my receiver/amplifier to plug them in. Second, the casing seems to be cheap plastic and poorly constructed. Worst of all, is the sound. I am not sure what is wrong with this thing--- I think the belt drive is off for one (which seems to be a frequent problem with other reviews). It seems to be just a touch slow, and makes the music that I know so well sound just not quite right. Second, it sounds like the music is being played from the bottom of a garbage can. The vocals are drowned out. The bass booms uncomfortably and with a hollow resonance. The higher pitched percussion sounds tinny. I thought for a second I had blown my speakers prior to playing this thing---- I checked my CD player and AM/FM and thankfully that was ok. I tried a different RCA input and there was no improvement. Disappointed and clearly a waste of money. I don't even want to try to record my vinyl onto CD because it would be a waste of a CD the way this thing plays music...... Now I am stuck with this paperweight.....
