USB Turntables (vinyl, albums, reviews, cheap)

Mr Nic · 12-03-2007, 10:59 AM

My original old Technics deck has finally given up the ghost and I've begun to think about investing in a USB turntable in order to convert a ton of my old vinyl to digital files. I've read some reviews and I'm a bit concerned about the sound quality you might get, but I'd appreciate any input regarding experiences (good or bad) that anyone has had.

I'll be aiming to connect the deck via external inputs on my old technics system plus USB direct to my mac.

Cheers!

Well thanks a bunch - Your input was invaluable. I guess I'll just take the plunge anyway...

Then can you give advice to me then? I've considered doing the same -

I avoided the really cheap options and went for the very reasonaby priced ION iTT 05. Easy to set up and simple, up-to-date software. I've tried digitizing a few albums and the results are pretty good. Available at a bargaintastic £79 / $99!!
