Denon DP-29F Fully Automatic Turntable with Built-In Phono Preamp

Description
Who says you have to trash your LPs just because your powerful new surround receiver doesn't offer a phono input? Denon's convenient DP-29F belt-driven, fully automatic turntable features its own RIAA-equalized phono preamplifier so you can plug it directly into any analog line-level input to enjoy your new or vintage records (yes, they're still cutting vinyl for many new releases, and it still sounds great). The durable DP-29F offers diecast aluminum construction, a metal platter with rubber mat, and a DC servo motor to maintain accurate rotational speed at either 33-1/3 or 45 rpm. The 'table even comes with Denon's DSN-82 moving-magnet cartridge, good for around 400 hours of "black gold" listening. Fully automatic performance means operation starts at the simple touch of a button, and at the end of a side the tone arm returns to its original position and the turntable stops rotating. With semi-automatic models, the platter stops at the end of the side but the stylus remains in the groove. What's in the Box
Turntable, turntable platter, rubber platter mat, dust cover, user's manual, and warranty/registration information.

Good deal for the moneySunday, March 20, 2005
I've had this for a few weeks now and love it. It's a fine turntable for a casual listener: simple operation, good sound. Note: there is a switch to disable the built-in pre-amp (which provides a good signal) if your receiver has a phono input.

Much less plastic than other plastics for $150... And playsSunday, March 13, 2005
You cannot buy REAL turntable for $150. You buy a crap. But Denon crap is much less crap that others within the same price range. It looks plastic, but plays pretty well. I had other piece of plastic, worth $150, reputable manufacturer, looking nicer, "silver" plated, lot of gadgets etc. I sold it on garage sale. 10 bucks.
I am using Denon to copy my 25 years old LPs to CD. Will not spend $500 or more for this. This model is perfect for this purpose. By the way, has the pre-amp built in. How many modern amplifiers have "phono" input?...

This turntable is about as sturdy as a piece of plastic - err, well, that's because it IS a piece of plastic. Not recommended.
