Title: Does the Job Barely
Review: I have seen this turntable marketed under three brands so far. I picked one up under the Optimus (Radio Shack) line so my wife could play her somewhat thrashed records. I picked it up on clearance for 39.95 about seven years ago. At that price it did the job but I would not let it touch a quality Lp or it will be damaged upon being played. I am surprised Denon would put there name on this turntable it's a good way to lessen there reputation. The one difference between this one and mine is the platter on mine is plastic and this one is alloy. Other than that they are identical. If you have records in not so great shape and do not play often then this rig is ok even if a bit pricey for what you get.
