Frequently Asked Questions
It's decent for basic listening and archiving, but a dedicated phono stage will generally offer more refined sound and lower noise floor.
The tonearm's fixed headshell limits cartridge compatibility and upgrade options; it's best to stick with standard-mount MM cartridges.
Yes, the USB-B output is generally compatible with both Windows and Mac, but driver installation might be required for optimal performance.
