Before I found this gem of a turntable that seemingly nobody talks about, I did a lot of research on different brands such as Audio Technica, Planar, U-Turn and Pro-Ject. One reason I was turned away from the last three I mentioned were that some of their belt-driven turntables had speed consistency issues according to some Youtube video reviews and written reviews that I read. For the life of me, I couldn't imagine spending over $400 on something that COMES WITH known issues. On the other hand, I didn't want to be basic and go with the AT LP-120 as I kind of had the feeling most of the rave reviews were from people who just don't really know any better. The electronic/USB feature must take away from something else's performance, or so I figured.
I was just about to throw the towel in when I stumbled across the LPW40WN, which I've never even seen anyone mention before, even after asking about turntables in online forums. The reviews already had me convinced this was the turntable I wanted to go with, and when I looked at the price, I was blown away as other brands have similar turntables for at least $100 more.
Audio Technica has a Youtube video for setting up this turntable, which made life much easier. Thank goodness, because the start-up guide is mainly pictures with no explanation if you're stuck with a question.
After having spun about 20 records on my LPW40WN, I've come to the conclusion that not only am I extremely satisfied, but I'm glad I overdid my research and skipped out on those other turntables. I haven't experienced any speed fluctuations, the stylus is apparently pretty nice according to those more knowledgeable than I, and it just LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. I've posted pictures online and visitors have commented on the stunning wood grain appearance and carbon-fiber tone arm. This turntable is obviously great for beginners as it has a built-in pre-amp, so that's one less thing to have to buy and do research on. However, since I'm no audiophile, I can see myself having this for many years to come, even when I'm no longer new to spinning vinyl.
