Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Toy for a Grown Boy
I gave the USB turntable to my husband last Christmas. We share a huge collection of LPs, 45s and some 78s; however, we do not share a love for the same music. He's a jazz and hip-hop aficiondo; I love salsa and opera. Although it was a gift to him, I thought he would be willing to let me convert some of my favorite music to digital. To date this hasn't happened, so I'm unable to give a first-person evaluation of the equipment. Based on my observations of his obvious joy when he's spread his albums ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exactly as advertised
If one realizes that converting tapes and records to a digital format must take place in real time (unlike the batch processing that occurs when a digital medium, such as a CD, is transferred to a computer), then the Ion Turntable is the way to go.

I purchased the Ion Audio TTUSB because I have hundreds of LP's and 78's that I need to convert to CD (and I wanted the dustcover that comes with it). I have done many conversions of audio cassette tapes (I have a tape deck connected to my computer ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super easy to use
Just got mine last night and found it very easy to use. Instructions are very clearly written and easy to follow. It took a minute to find the two parts taped into the styro packaging but they were well protected there. I am now happily converting my old LP's.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Easy Solution
Turntable works fine, software works fine. All very easy if you are putting your records on your computer as albums rather than individual tracks. A nice feature is that after you are finished with an album, it goes looking for the album title so you won't have to transcribe it. My record collections stops at about 1970, when the technology wasn't that clever, so it succeeds in about one of three records. Still, it's a convenience.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Buy this - you won't be disappointed
Don't be misled by the Windows or Mac only requirements. Use this with any Linux box, as I do, with Audacity installed, and it is a breeze. And that way, you don't have to worry about any additional installation with the enclosed CD.

With just a stereo, this player is top quality and has a great range of sound as well.
