I purchased this turntable for a specific use. I needed a second turntable for a monaural set up, and wanted one that would play 78's. The pro's: (1) Plays 33's, 45's, and 78's. (2) Does NOT have hardwired RCA cables, so you can choose your own, and plug them in. (3) The turntable keeps proper speed (I have not used a strobe to verify this, just my ears). (4) The sound quality is quite good. (5) Auto-stop feature. I am using this table with a different headshell, and an old monaural variable reluctance (moving iron) cartridge, so I cannot comment on the headshell / cartridge that is supplied with the table. I am also using an old external preamplification system, so I cannot comment on the tables built in preamplifier. Now for the cons: (1) This table (at least my copy) is not dead quiet. What I mean by that is there is some motor whirring that can be heard while its running. For the price of this table, I find that unacceptable. This isn't the most expensive table on the market, but its not the cheapest either. I have 2 belt-drive tables that are decades older than this one which both run DEAD silent (I am not using either of those tables where I am using the Denon, as neither play 78's). (2) The only way to adjust the VTA is by using headshell spacers, in order to retain the tables auto-stop function. I knew the tables tonearm was not adjustable before I bought it (most are not), and due to the odd cartridge I am using, I knew that I was not going to able to use headshell spacers. So to adjust the VTA, I added a thick cork mat to the platter. The cork mat did correct the VTA, perfectly, but the thickness of the mat renders the auto-stop feature inoperable. (3) Platter spindle well. This is more of a potential con, but I think someone might run into this. Beware of where this table is placed in relation to your speakers (yeah, I know that's usually in turntables 101). I ran into a phenomenon where due to the proximity of the table set up to a speaker, I was picking up a howl....But it was not traveling up the cabinet the table is on, through the tables feet. In the very center of the bottom of the table is the bottom of the platters spindle well. That spindle well is flush with the feet, and rests on the surface the table is set up on, just like the feet. I was able to determine that the vibrations causing the howl, were traveling through the platters spindle well. To solve this, I added thick felt pads to the bottom of the 4 feet, raising the table so that platter spindle well is no longer in contact with the cabinet (for full disclosure, I did have a different table set up in the exact same spot, and that one did not pick up any extraneous vibrations). All in all, its really not a bad table, and is serving the use which I intended it to. However, I do not feel that the cost of the table is justified for what it is.
