Initially, I was impressed with the overall sound quality of this turntable. But then, the more I listened to it, the more I noticed the wow & flutter on most of my records (a slightly "draggy" sound quality - most notable on piano or acoustic music). My ear is quite critical of variations in speed and I couldn't listen to my records on this player without hearing it. However, most casual listeners may not notice this and, for them, this turntable might be a pretty good bargain. Keep in mind, though, that this is designed for DJ use and has the short, straight tonearm which is great for scratching - not so great for audiophile ears. For critical listening, turntables with an S-shaped tonearm are highly recommended. Bottom line, I returned my T-50X and will most likely get the Audio Technica AT-PL120.

The product arrived on time, with no suprises. I have embarked on a return to vinyl, and I am buying used records that are sounding much better than ever before. This turntable has alot to do with that. I highly recommend purchasing a phono preamp. It will make things sound great. NO MORE CDS!!!!!

Actually I did not mean to order this product. I tried over and over again to find a way to cancel my order but every time I tried it would say that I had no orders placed. I could not find a phone number or even an email address for customer service. I was extremely frustrated. I even contacted the business/seller to tell them I did not want to place the order but of course received no response. I am going to return the product and not order through this website again.
