It's really easy to take this baby out of the box and get it set up. I followed this YouTube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zi7d6j8aQ0), and had it set up by the time the video ended. Within minutes I was listening to records.
It's super easy to use this on your PC/Mac (even Linux :-D). Plugs in via USB, appears in Audacity, and BAM, mp3 (or wav or FLAC or w/e) of your vinyl.
The only problem was that the mp3 file was a little quiet, but that was probably my Audacity settings. Though with MP3Gain, I was able to fix the mp3. I'll need to experiment with the settings to get the right ones.
Connected to my receiver (that has a phono input), it sounds amazing!
I highly recommend this record player. It's inexpensive, works, sounds great, and looks great!
Note: This can only play 33's and 45's, not 78's.
Pros Casual Listening, Archiving
Cons no 78 rpm setting

After continued use for the past 6 months, the turntable while definitely adequate , is overpriced for what you get. If you don't mind having to get up every couple of minutes to change a record, then you will be happy. I would have been happier if they would have offered a stackable feature to be able to listen in comfort to concentrate and be enveloped in the musical experience. That is not the fault of the equipment, just a lack of a feature. So, all in all, it is nothing more than adequate compared to other equipment in this price range.
Pros Casual Listening
Cons needs a stackable feature

When the tone arm gets to about the middle of the 2nd last track it stops tracking beyond that point and if I raise the tone arm and gently move it beyond this point there is some slight resistance until the tone arm reaches a point about level with the end of the last track and then the auto function activates and the tone arm returns to the tone arm rest and the turntable shuts down. Please email me instructions on what to do to have this faulty operation fixed.

I have only just set up this turntable a couple of days ago - you shipped it to me on 20 July 2011.

Thank you for your inquiry. You will need to download a copy of Audacity from Sound Forges website. We no longer include Cakewalk software with our turntables.

Answer: 
Thank you for your inquiry. First, make sure you are not connecting to a USB hub, but instead directly to a USB port on the computer. Try other USB ports if you have multiple ports. Try connecting the turntable to another computer if one is available. You may need to contact your computer vendor to make sure that the USB Audio Codec is installed and working. This is part of the operating system and is necessary for operation.

The platter is turning too fast at the 12" and 33rpm setting, such that the vocalists sound like the Chipmunks. I've tried switching the controls back and forth, tried it at 45rpm (it's faster than the alleged 33rpm setting), and have tried multiple LPs. All have this problem.

Answer: 
Thank you for your inquiry. Check the belt to make sure it is properly seated into the groove of the drive pulley. If it is riding too high or too low this would cause the turntable to run fast. To check this, remove the felt mat from the patter. Turn the platter until one of the square holes is at the 10 o'clock position. You should see the brass drive pulley. Make sure the belt is only in the groove. If this does not resolve the issue you will want to contact our service department at (330) 686-2600 Option 4.
