Customer Rating:      Summary: Rip Your Records Rapidly Comment: Great product easy to use with great sound quality.
Don't know how anyone broke a stylus in 20 minutes. However, as this is a Numark you can buy replacements if you do the same, or much more likely when you wear out the original, for around £8 on a host of web-sites. Even a replacement cartridge is only around £12 online.
It is a disadvantage not having a dust cover so I bought an OK one for around £13 from a US supplier on Amazon markets (look under Numark TTUSB / Ion ITTUSB Dust Cover which takes you to a supplier called DigitalDustCovers).
There are a few direct competitors for this (from Stanton, ION, OEM models & even a much pricier, more featured Numark model) but this seemed to best value from websites and once I got it the only complaint was lack of an included dustcover (which all competitors at under £100 seem to suffer from).
Customer Rating:      Summary: That was quick Comment: I havent yet set up this turntable as it is a present but the 5 stars are for the fact that when l ordered it said it would be dispatched before 24 Dec and it came the next day, by standard post, Fantastic.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Easy peasy dusty cover me. Comment: Within half an hour I'd recorded the first vinyl single to MP3. The software is a freebie that you can update from the internet. That's not a criticism at all. It's damn fine software and better than some of the stuff people are charging for. No, the only criticism is the lack of lid/cover for which it loses a star.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very easy to use Comment: Have to agree with a previous reviewer, God knows how someone managed to break the needle and USB cable in 20 minutes of buying it. The needle is no different than any other you would find on a record player and the USB cable the same as the one you would have to connect your printer.
The whole thing took about 5 minutes to set up, it does come complete with cables to plug into the back of your stereo but I couldn't get a very good output from my HiFi system (probably works better with a stack system) Plugging it into the computer though was no problem.
Simply insert the CD that comes with the record player into your computer to download the software you need, plug in the USB cable and that's about it. The sound quality I have found has been excellent and you don't even need decent speakers for your computer (mine are from Asda!)
Very easy to record onto a blank CD and the playback I have found on a half decent system is great.
Only problem I have with this (and why I only give it 4 stars) Is that it comes with no dust cover. Complete pain in the a***!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Quick and easy Comment: I found this turntable very easy to assemble and the Adacity software supplied very straight forward and easy to use. It's been great to go through my old vinyl and rediscover gems that I haven't listened to for ages. I don't know how the previous reviewer manage to break the needle and damage the USB port. The words "heavy" and "handed" spring to mind! This is a great little purchase which will bring you hours of fun.

The TTUSB is a unique, plug and play, USB compatible turntable that makes digitizing your vinyl record collection to your PC or Mac a snap. Packaged with all the necessary cables to connect with a computer or stereo playback system, along with software to remove clicks, pops, and other undesirable characteristics of vinyl, the TTUSB is a comprehensive package that breathes new life into older recordings.
