Remove the mystery from this turntable

This is an excellent turntable, competing against many more costly other brands. I don't like the "professional cartridge", for use in nightclubs where abuse is the first order. There are many good optional cartridges available. The possible feedback from the motor can easily be eliminated by using a felt platter mat, instead of the rubber mat that comes with the machine. For those not familiar with turntables, the light airy sound comes from the quality cartridge, not the turntable itself. I highly recommend this turntable for those that do not wish to deal with turntables with belt drives.
