Before ordering, I informed myself in show Dealer about the added value of the devices in this price range. The excellent advising Show Dealer prevented I acquired an inferior device for almost as much money. The Omnitronic DD-2520 is really worth the money. Unwrapped, assembled, software installed on the laptop, and already I could hear my old records in a super quality and at the same time convert it into MP3 files. One can also create WAV files, which is not necessarily a good idea but because the file size. Stereo recordings are recorded on two channels and of course also play. The turntable makes many details a great impression, z. B. Lighting the stylus. Not least because of the direct drive, there is no rumble. Long tones, such as those found in classical music, particularly in trumpet concerts are played with no apparent height variation. That is, the synchronous operation is excellent. The Omnitronic DD-2520 is optimized for the actual functions, just a little bit of a purist. Automatic tone arm lift at the end of the plate and off the rotation does not exist. This is more than consistent, because every other mechanism would entail interference in reproduction quality by itself. It is recommended to Reingen the plates before playing with a carbon brush. That takes the static charge and prevent the crackling, an effect which was formerly achieved by Naßabspielen.
