We like:
Nice size for portability; includes a USB output for recording directly to your computer
We don't like:
Recording software included could be better; plastic tone arm feels flimsy
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Whether you're a seasoned crate-digger or a vinyl holdout looking to downsize your hi-fi, the Ion iPTUSB strikes a great balance of portability, features and sound quality
