Product Review (submitted on May 11, 2022):
I bought this turntable for a small listening space to be used primarily for listening to records with headphones. I have a Fiio K5 Pro Headphone Amp paired with the turntable. When using the built in preamp, the sound was thin and tinny. I had an old Pro-Ject Phono Box MM preamp that I put in my stack and the sound quality was immediately improved when I bypassed the built-in preamp. Outside of this not inconsiderable issue, the turntable is a nice sounding turntable. It does have auto-stop, but the record merely stops spinning it does not lift the needle off of the record. The build quality and assembly instructions were clear and easy to follow. I plan to get many years of use out of this turntable and would highly recommend it with the caveat that you supply your own preamp.
