My slipmat wasn't in a bag, I don't think any of them were.

I just got a shipping confirmation from TMR for the replacement stickers.flattop2001 wrote:"no one knows how to talk to children"?
Am I the only anal OCD sufferer that does not think this should have passed quality checks?

Re: Your Turntable's Customized!
Does anyone have a problem with their turntable stopping to early?
The auto tone arm pick-up is kicking on too early and on a 7" only plays 3/4 of the song....
I really don't want to bother TMR and try to get it replaced or something, I'd rather just open it up and fix it, but due to the limited nature of the beast, I want to be 100% sure on the fix before I do it.
Would have loved it if the table had a headphone jack too! That's a Crosley thing not a TM thing but I was hoping to keep the table on my desk at work to listen to records.

Re: Your Turntable's Customized!
So I just got my set yesterday (after a Fed Ex nightmare) and It's amazingly cool. The question I have is are people actually using the record player? I have no familarity with Crosley but I just worry about playing rare and expensive vinyl on a low end record player. Don't want to chew up the grooves just for the sake of portability. Anyone have any thoughts?

Re: Your Turntable's Customized!
Finally got mine today as well, after being at work Thursday and Friday so I wasn't at home to sign for it. The turntable is much larger than it looks in any picture. Very happy and satisfied!
I only wanted to be good enough, but I'm not.

Re: Your Turntable's Customized!
You might ruin a record if you play it 300 times on the player, but you should be just fine. The tone arm setup is so light and there is not really a way to screw it up thanks to no counter weights. You would really have to stack some coins on the needle to start ruining it.nesguys wrote:So I just got my set yesterday (after a Fed Ex nightmare) and It's amazingly cool.
