Product Review (submitted on April 2, 2019):

I wanted something brand new (with warranty) to take over for my vintage Linear Tracking Turntable. After much searching, I found the turntable I was looking for!!!! I chose the RT83 as an entry point for the Reference Turntables that had the Ortofon 2M cartridges already installed. After five days of waiting for it to arrive, delivery was delayed not 1 but 2 business days due to bad weather along the way. I finally received it yesterday. I had been looking at unboxings of this and similar models over and over, so I knew pretty much not only what was in the box, but the assembly steps as well. Assembly took just under an hour. The surprise came when I fired it up....and wow!!!! Just beautiful!!! The wait was definitely worth it. I am not ditching my LT Turntable as it is going to be the turntable (with preamp) that will play vinyl on my computer. The RT83 is now my new main go-to turntable for enjoying Vinyl the way it was meant to be heard. The sounds pop out and everything is so clear, it sounds like you're right there in the studio. I'm using this turntable through a Marantz SR-4023, Bose 901 Series IV Equalizer (restored) and output to a pair of Bose 901 Series IV speakers (also restored). The result? My whole living room is totally bathed in sound so rich that I am instantly taken away to another world. :) I cannot believe how beautiful it looks and build quality? Very solid!!! I am definitely pleased with my choice as I believe I have made a solid investment in my vinyl playing future!
