Buyer Beware
By Armando M. Mesa
I had the pleasure or displeasure of trying and testing this Crosley turntable. No never mind how nice the wood finish is but you need to ask how well does the turntable itself perform. The turntable platter and tonearm are pure plastic ! As for the cartridge, buyer beware. If you intend to purchase one of these faux 'tables ask the sales person how to obtain an extra cartridge or stylus for the stylus is not a typical p-mount (plug and play) that you can just get from Best Buy or Radio Shack. It seems to be maufactured to fit the Crosley turntable only.

Now as for the sound, this will blow your mind. Why on earth would any company manufacture an audio product, concentrate totally on the "nice" wood finish but neglect to make at least a half decent turntable playing mechanism ? Beats me.We're not looking for audiophile grade components here but at least humor the consumer with something that sounds better than a AM transistor radio. The sound you will get from the "full range" speakers means there are no 2 way or 3 way speakers built in (then again, neither was there in the 1930's).

If you want something to add to your nostalgic Americana memorabilia just to look at then the Crosley will fit in nicely. If you are expecting mid to hi-end analog quality sound, forget it.Look elsewhere. The flimsy tonearm needle will not track those slightly warped lp's you may own...

Plays well and has enough volume
By Steven M. Staniszewski
I bought mine from the Crosley website, they had a deal for $69 plus $20 for shipping.( they are not going to make this mode anymore but from what I have found out all the internals are the same for most models). The original price was $129 and the cr47 ( $115 shipped) is very similar but it is like a suitcase not wood. The cabinet is very nice and I WAS worried about the sound quality, especially after reading the other reviews. I have a vintage Harmon kardon system that I still use and I am into good sound. This was a better fit for me for the old albums that I have acquired, more portable and if I want excellent sound I can go downstairs and listen to digital music through my integrated amp. This unit works well, it is loud and clear enough and has tone control. My little kids love it, the only other one they ever saw was on Barney. It is perfect for those of you that want to break out some old vinyl for nostaglic purposes. If you want perfect sound quality buy a cd, or download the music and put it on your ipod.
