Thoughts???

[Letitroll98]

My thoughts are that it's a good question.  I'm intrigued by this super cheap table that checks all the boxes for high end product at a below bargain basement pricing.  Does it sound as good as it looks?  Did you see any listing for anybody displaying one at the show?  Prolly not.

A friend got one in the Kickstarter start up.  Blue with the upgraded platter.  It looks pretty good.  Sound is ok, probably limited by the Ortophon 5se cart.  I checked the factory tracking and it was right at 1.85g.   No cuing lever, which stinketh.  Felt mat.  No antiskate.  Comes with dustcover.

Hi all.
In the middle of all my nightmare with my Rega P3/RB301
I thought of buying a beautiful white one,
but I am almost sure it's won't match the sound of my P3,
when of course, I have fixed all the little/big problems with my P3/RB301.
The other problem with the U Turn Ortbit is that the only available motor is a 120V. 60Hz.
120V is no problem, but the 60Hz running at 50Hz is a problem.
I addition the arm look a little flimsy/cheap, but a white turntable. WOW 
I think it's a good deal for entry or re-entry level audiophile.

I was playing with the "build your own" options.

What would you guys do?

Grado cartridge?
Acrylic platter?
Etc?

Mine was $339, acrylic platter, AT95 cart, tonearm lift, not sure if black or white would look best.  Still, I think that's cheaper than the lowest priced Pro-ject or Music Hall.  And you're getting an acrylic platter with a decent cartridge included.  I would have upgraded to a Grado but I have a zillion of them already.  All in all a pretty good deal considering that fitted like this I would assume a little better than just okay sound.
