Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I am not an audiophile, but it is a hobby i have indulged in all my life. I would recommend anyone who is just starting out in vinyl or those who are looking for a turntable upgrade to strongly consider the u turn orbit.

I am amazed at the professionalism and attentiveness showed to me by u-turn audio. They provide first rate customer service in the apple mode of we just take care of it mentality. It only takes a few seconds to swap the belts out.

The ortofon cartridge brings out sound i didn't even know were there. The sound reproduction is fantastic. The bass is more pronounced and the mids and highs very strong and clear.



Cons

The * belt comes off daily. Lame - include it and add $40 bucks to the price.

Competitiveness


Fast response to questions and they replaced a damaged dustcover without question


The ortofon cartridge brings out sound i didnt even know were there


It is more than likely that your ampreceiver is not properly grounded or it could be the wall oulet andor power strip you are using


To get this with competitors i found that it was going to cost roughly twice as much

    The u turn actually sounds better


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
