Found this model on a list of best vinyl players on the market and though I don’t have much experience in the realm, the quality/design is stunning. Sound is crystal clear without sacrificing that signature record scratch, functionality is as involved/analog as it can be without being cumbersome, and box arrived perfectly packaged. The only issue I have is user-related; the dust cover can’t lift high enough on my bookshelf to stay open so I have to finagle it while putting a record on. Keep that in mind if you’re planning to place it on a shelf/in a cubby. Audio cords are long enough to create substantial distance between the speakers and the player for anyone worried about that. Larger than I expected, but far prettier in person. Mine has continued to wow our guests for the last few weeks and prompted us to play something each time which leads to great conversation. Can’t love it enough!
