Eeek I eyeballed one of these USB turntables :) omg is there no limit to how crappy things can be, If you want vinyl for no money at all get something from a flee market you can find turntables made of actual metal and wood , change the pickup and maybe the drive belt , instant vinyl bliss ! I have to visit my attic to bring my old systemdeck down, but I have no MC stage Phono Stage or vinyls anymore . -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- No it can NOT be controlled with iTunes.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69989 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
