I have come to notice that today’s turntables even in reviews don’t give any reals technical specifications of the turntable itself like the not of frequency range is for the cartridge that can be changed and even that info was just general. If you have a so so cartridge in excellent turntable and as good as the turntable can handle in a low end turntable even reasonable quality, the cheap one wins in sound. The cartridge cost doesn’t count. Many come without just for the reason that buyer might already have a good one or prefer to get a quality one that will cost more than this turntable. If this one has any descent specifications it would work with a better cartridge and produce superior sound. Now you only practically gave info about the operation and cartridge specs and those without any range either. Like basically you said, it turns about right speed because the stroboscope on the platter said so and the cartridge is supposed to deliver, at least what the manufacture say 20Hz to 20kHz. +/- ? db maybe 6 distortion maybe 3 % +/- some, hum who knows, we didn’t hear any or did you. So you see, I don’t blame you alone as every, or almost do the same thing and that doesn’t help anybody. You just happened to have very easy reply form. Now that is positive at least.
