Steven Stone has posted a review of the Sony PS-HX500 turntable ($599) at Sound and Vision. His conclusions:
“Compared with other USB-enabled turntables, the Sony PS-HX500 offers far more highly evolved and sophisticated digital capabilities, along with a nice straightforward software to make the transfers as easy as possible. I was sufficiently impressed by the PS-X500′s digital performance that I wished that I could use its digital section to make digital files with my reference turntables. While the Sony PS-X500′s analog performance was good, its digital capabilities were exceptional. ”
