I have purchased the record player, because I want to play my old records and singles now and again. For three to five times a year you do not need high super good device, because it is ultimately all about the "reminiscing". That's why I was looking specifically for a record player with integrated speakers for an acceptable, not expensive price. The Auna TBA-298 is therefore the ideal instrument for me. If necessary, from the closet brought out, plug in the socket and off you go. I have the device are aware of in the closet because my Verstaubungsrisiko due to the lateral openings in the lid is too high. Sure, in the processing mainly billigster plastic has been used in a cast, but who cares when it's really about the occasional playing old records? Certainly missing the automatic respect of the tonearm, but with a little finesse to get the out already. And the sound ... okay, there are better, but you have already heard worse - if you can hear through headphones, it is in fact better than without. But you can live with. The manual is very poor, but all that is needed is, in it (but the details seem partly to refer to a previous device) - ultimately the unit declared but almost by itself Unfortunately, there is a detailed indication of the needle so that it. can be purchased separately as needed - that's a shortcoming, maybe someone here has already made experiences? Conclusion: I join all in all many already released (positive) reviews and designate the device as a cheap, simple and without much effort to be operated alternative to play records in the simplest equipment with - according to the price - satisfactory sound.
