LAB REVIEW
Numark's best selling portable turntable is the best value / reliable at this price point. For anyone who collects or buys vinyl regularly, the uses of a portable turntable are obvious - listen to records before you buy, and play them anywhere. It's a good deal all around. The Numark PT01 follows the basic principles of vintage portable models, but adds several modern conveniences which older portables lack: USB and RCA output, hi/low tone control, and +/- 10% pitch control. In addition, the PT01 has the basics down solid - 33, 45 & 78 rpm play so you can listen to basically any record you find, the inclusion of both 3.5mm and 1/4" headphone inputs so you can listen with whatever headphones you got (or the built-in loudspeaker), plus the ability to run on battery or included power plug is crucial. Lastly, the PT01 features a simple, utilitarian shape that will fit inside a record crate or bag quite easily, or can be transported by built-in carry handle. A quality portable and a great value especially with the ability to record to computer via USB (with included download for MAC and PC recording software).
