    I just bought a PS-LX300USB and made my first recording. Very slick! I wanted to address a point made by more than one reviewer - "Can't monitor while recording". It is really very easy to do as there are two sets of outputs - USB & RCA (phono). All you do is run the USB to your computer and run the RCA to a stereo. In my case, my stereo is in another room - SO - I just got an adaptor from Radio Shack (COUPLER - two female RCA, one end, and one female mini phono, other end) and hooked up a set of iPod earphones to the RCA outs. Cheap headphones are best because they are designed for low output devices and will give you enough volume to monitor with, with only the turntable's built in "line-out" to power them. When one song ends hit the pause button, then the make another recording button, then the record button again. There are plenty of effects and tools - for old albums you can use the EQ to boost the highs, etc or put in a little reverb to make it sound more live.. You can preview (hear) any effect before committing. A great little package - all you need to do the job.

    I've only had this thing two weeks...and it's been frustrating. Whoever designed the software should be fired for incompetence. Why would you design a product that records vinyl to hard drive without giving one the ability to listen while recording? A Sony 'help' person told me it wasn't designed to do that! So, you have to guess when to flip over the record or pause between tracks or only record certain tracks. And you have to pause between tracks because the software doesn't recognize the space between cuts; it will only read as a continuous recording. Now, if you do the 'guessing' thing, it will record and do a nice job of cleaning up your vinyl without destroying the richness of an album sound. But man, why would Sony put out a product with this serious glitch? I expected a lot more from Sony. This is stupid.

      Very quick and easy to learn the setup. Has pretty good sound when transferred to PC. Can do many other things with system if you take the time to play with the settings.

      Comments about Sony Black USB Stereo Turntable System:

      I use this turntable to transfer my old Lp's to my computer file and then download to my I pod.
      There are two cables attached to this unit.
      The one is used as a monitor when connected to you stereo system.
      The other attaches to your computer system.
      The recording software which comes with this unit is not supported by my windows 7 operating system.
      I ordered a separate program which was more compatible and much more simple to understand.
      The price I paid for this was less than I paid for the initial purchase from another site.
      Abt has EXCELLENCE customer service.. I had this product within 3 days of ordering and paying for it.

        Comments about Sony Black USB Stereo Turntable System:

        This is a very good turntable for the money. Plays vinyl records very well. Don't be mislead by the title, this turntable is able to play a record like normal through speakers via RCA out. However, you also have the option to convert your vinyl to mp3, etc. Sound quality is great, can't beat a good old fashioned record. Definitely worth buying!

        Great Stereo Turntable

        By BeeGeeDC

        from Washington, D.C.

        Comments about Sony Black USB Stereo Turntable System:

        I've only had my turntable for a couple of months, but easily converted several vinyl albums using the vinyl restoration feature in SoundForge 9.0, although some songs don't break. That's easily fixed via cut & paste into new tracks. Just make sure you save first in WAV format and then you can edit freely and save into other formats (e.g. MP3, etc.#. Still learning software, but it seems to work best via the vinyl restoration wizard. For replacement, the stylus #N-6516) part number is 9-885-117-75 and the cartridge part number is 9-885-117-76. Give Sony parts and accessories a call. I'm going to convert all my vinyl and have loads of MP3s to load on phone that are probably not even available in online stores. Wish I could sell them, but I'm sure the bad guys would call. :-)

          No power

          By frenchbus

          from Portland, OR

          Comments about Sony Black USB Stereo Turntable System:

          Followed troubleshooting help from Sony rep which we confirmed there is no power going to the unit. The spindle does not move after depressing "start" and no electronic sounds can be heard. Inspection with a flashlight under platter and it looks to me like there are some electronic components missing. Too bad they don't have another one in stock or I'd review a working model.
