ION Pure LP Turntable

Cheap but not cheerful

The turntable looks good when taken from the box, and the design is quite pleasing. I bought it to transfer some old 78 and 45 singles to MP3 on the computer.
On first use I was disappointed that the arm was very light and had a fragile feel to it and the automatic movements are jerky. I played a 78 and the turntable stopped before it reached the end of the record. On repeated use it did this on some but not all 78's. It plays 45's OK and reaches the end.
All of my records are old but the turntable seems to accentuate every click, pop and scratch. Fortunately I can run the MP3's through a scratch filter but this has not proven adequate to make the recordings usable.
My final disappointment is that the perspex dust cover is marked already and I have not even run a duster over it. I dread thinking what it will look like after a few months.Read full review
