![]() Not on an LP that’s worth more than the record player itself. And even given the ceramic needle and probably high tracking force, LP’s can usually take some abuse, especially older LP’s prior to the oil embargo in the 1970’s.īut where I will agree with you is that I wouldn’t risk it. I doubt very highly that you’d trash a record after one play, even on this cheap device. So instead of saving money, you will be throwing money and value away by destroying your records. Sorry but the fact is that if you want to play vinyl, with the least risk (because all needles will do a little damage), you need to get a high end needle and a device that will float the needle properly in the groove of the record, or you are going to trash it. If you don’t believe me, do a little research on this issue. I suspect the quality of this is so poor that it will ruin a record after ONE PLAY. You can easily ruin a record by using a poor quality needle on it. Remember - the needle will be scraping against what may be rare/valuable records. The issue isn’t how cheap/expensive the device is but the quality of the needle, and how the needle is held as it plays the record. Don’t do it! I’m sorry, Woot, but as a musician, music lover, and historian, I have to speak out against your poorly considered decision to market this product.
