anyone know anything about these? are they crap? I would be buying one for just listening to LP's. Would it be a bargain if I paid 65€ for one?

if you only want to listen you should get more specified hifi tables...
there have been quite a few threads like this lately.. is it because of analord?

do you have any recomendations? I've been thinking of a Pro-Ject 1.2 or a Debut turntable? they seem good quality and quite stylish?

I have two recommendations I give by default.
Rega. Listened to different rega tables up through the ages and they sound amazing!
and clearaudio which only is an option if you have a bit of money to spend...
but be warned: if you think you'll ever want to scratch or mix or whatever, you shouldn't get these.

hmm.. I'm not sure... just search finnish webshops or something or go to a hifi store and check them out... You should probably go to a store and listen to a few different tables to decide for yourself if the difference between [turntable1] and [turntable2] is enough for you to save up more money.. different turntables also have different characteristics, which you'll have to decide on your own if you like [1] or [2].

yeah, it seems like a reasonable price...
(but go to the store and listen, and if they have the clearaudio master solution set up, ask if you can listen to it.. I've never had the pleasure of listening to any of clearaudios higher priced turntables as they take a few hours to set up, but even the "cheaper" ones sound fucking amazing!)

I'll quess that I'll save for something proper, but I think I may want to fuck with the records in the future, so I may buy a stanton or something.

it depends what you want to do with em...
i mean beatmatching is kinda impossible with them - but you can get used to it...
it is not possible to match beats of two songs for a longer time on them due the lack of quartz steering or anything else...
scratching is impossible too because the table is plasitc... you shouldn't even touch it really...
why not investing for some stanton straghts ? or reloops 3000 ?
i mean of course - you can buy the for home use - but after 2 months you will want to change them.
i f you don't - and you get to a club where there a re technics 1200 mk2 decks there then sayonara... (believe me :D)
