Bought for home listening. For the money a lot of options you won't find elsewhere (anti-skating, VAT, speed adjustment, speed stability, ...) The integrated amplifier is nothing special, the bypass doesn't work as one would think - straight. But I was most disappointed by the pickups that are transferred from the motor to the transmission via the turntable's sassis, there's not much you can do about that. So for occasional listening more than OK, but not for someone who wants a higher level of reproduction quality or DJing.
