4.0 out of 5 stars Very good for the price., June 19, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Numark TT-200 Direct Drive Turntable (Electronics)
Finally, an equipment manufacturer has developed a low priced turntable that functions much like a Technics 1200. The Numark TT200 drastically changes the turntable buying market. With its $199.00 price tag, it easily outperforms similarly priced turntables; and also competes with the 1200 and similar high end turntables in terms of price performance.

What makes this turntable different? First and foremost, the TT200 has a powerful direct drive motor. The torque (1.7 kg/cm) is actually stronger than the 1200(!). Second, the construction resembles the durable design of higher priced models: steel top, rubberized bottom, and aluminum platter. The TT200 weighs almost as much as a 1200, and you can feel it when you use it.

The all aluminum, straight arm tonearm is the best offered at this price range. It performs with excellent tracking, and higher durability than its plastic counterparts. In addition, the TT200 comes with an extra standard s-shaped tonearm. The pitch control has a... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Good performance... when it works, October 13, 2005

This review is from: Numark TT-200 Direct Drive Turntable (Electronics)
I bought a TT-200 about 2 years ago because a.) the price was right and b.) it plays 78 speed. I also paid an additional $30 or so for the optional S-shaped tone arm and pilot light. The fact that it has a universal headshell made it easy to switch between my microgroove cartridge and 78 cartridge, which are mounted on their own headshells.

At first I loved this turntable. It seemed solidly built and performed very well, with excellent tone. And it looked pretty sharp, too!

About a month after the warranty expired, the turntable motor went bad, and the table would not spin at the correct speed. I called Numark and they were cool about taking it back for repair at no charge. I have only good things to say about their customer service. Numark replaced the parts that went bad and shipped it back quickly.

Ten months later I noticed that my records seemed to skip a lot. It got so bad that the turntable couldn't even track some records at all! I tried... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Best turntable I've ever bought, July 31, 2004
This review is from: Numark TT-200 Direct Drive Turntable (Electronics)
As far as price performance goes, this table beats everything I've played with. This puppy has the strength of a 1200 or 1210, but with more features. The reverse is a nice little touch. What I really enjoy is the tonearm setup, which allows either an S-shaped or straight tonearm to be fitted. The only qualms I have are that, while it can use an S-shaped tonearm and a target light, these need to be bought separately. Also, the "slipmat" that comes with the tables is more rubber and less "slip", so it'll have to be replaced (at least, if I start scratching). Of course, considering I didn't have to drop $400 apiece on the tables themsleves, forking over for the extras hurts much less.
