Just an incredible turntable. I bought it as a replacement for my planar one which although a great turntable wasn't really up to my needs. You can hear the difference with the LP140XP it really gives the sound produced a punchy feel. The planar was more subdued. The motor is very powerful. V fast start up time. The reverse function is fun and the pitch control works too design. The stylus provided is more than adequate for my needs. The tone arm itself is very easy to set up. Yeah great deck. Well pleased. Also like that I got it on 12 months interest free from SHS. would definitely buy from them again.
