      If you can bear with me, Phil, I’ve requested a review sample so will be able to address that then.

    When you review could you test the tonearm bearing play and antiskate adjustment as these Hanpin OEM turntables all seem to have issues. The DJ tables may have looser bearings due to the nature of 5heir use but this one should be up to specification.

    Regards

      Hi Bill – any build issues such as these will normally be visible in terms of use and sound quality so, in effect, I already do report on those issues but in terms that might be more relevant to the user as players of records. You can see, via my review of an earlier Reloop model that, unlike some reviewers, I took the aesthetics with a pinch of salt 🙂 : https://thevinylfactory.com/features/turntable-review-reloop-turn-3/
      I hope the company has improved matters since then.
