bearchuck Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'm pretty sure it was sarcasm chuck... I love sarcasm ... except when it comes to the USPS. I take that shit very seriously.

raynerho Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 From what it looks like, the orbit does not come with anti-skate, but does come with a counterweight. The dangling weight on the Project and Music Hall is the anti-skate. Thanks buddy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooks Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 anybody that's had one for a bit, how you liking it? Gonna make a decision soon, and leaning towards the Orbit if I can hear some decent reviews. appreciate all the info so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy plays bass Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I like it more and more as I keep using it. It really does seem like a great deal for the money. My only complaint is that the dust cover doesn't balance well when it's up for flipping over/switching records, but that's not a huge deal.

Like, does it go all the way back - or does it flop down on your hand when your replacing a record? Thanks dude! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodfriendbadhabit Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 If this has been addressed, I'm sorry..Looking through their facebook: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=528945747185807&set=a.393875450692838.96132.390903660990017&type=1&theater The first comment with replies gives you a little bit of an insight, though not much. Also by looking through the comments/questions: 1. When asked about antiskate/wear they had this to say: "Good question. When we measured each of the channels for magnitude, we determined that the difference was not significant enough to cause any uneven wear in the stylus. We made this judgment by observing similar measurements on turntables with correctly adjusted anti-skate" 2. For those asking about the cue lever: "Curing lever does not come standard, although one will be offered as a separate add on in a few months (it will be very easy to install yourself)." So if you want the cue lever, you're going to have to (eventually) pay for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aju2streets Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 They said it would probably cost around $30 (the cueing lever) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks dude! It tends to flop down on my hand. It's definitely possible to get it to balance, but even then, it always seems like it's about to fall down.

Just put it back when you are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergeantscruffy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 These are made in Woburn, MA? That's like 5 minutes from my apartment. Maybe I'll swing by and try to convince them I need a free one, you know, to review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
