Anyone know the quality of this compared to the Singer? I have the Singer and thinking of exchanging for this...

I don't know about the Singer...but I really like my Dritz My Double. I used a sloper and made it an exact body double with padding. It is stable dressform which I really like.

I agree with B. Richardson, the speakers in the machine are very good. Occasionally my hubby would hook up speakers if we were watching a concert and he wanted more bass, but it's sounds great just how it is.

It is my understanding that the Singer is an American made machine and the Brother is imported so this could fit into your decision? I have read many reviews and the Singer is a sturdier metal frame and components compared to Brothers which have more plastic parts. I do read that the weight of the Singer is heavier which would validate its metal composition vs the lighter machines, however I don't know that this determines what one wants out of their investment. Yes the Brother seems to have extra bells and whistles which are desireable but what are the main components that are needed for your long term projects. My decision is between the Singer 7469Q and the 7470 which has extra features like the alpha/numeric stitching and more stitch choices and costs more. My primary focus will be for occasional sewing and repairs but primary on my bucket list is to make several quilts for a sense of accomplishment. As a reitred dude I guess my sewing machine has to be as cool as the rides I have had which required performance, reliability, coolness, and finally I did take into consideration whether it was American made. Yes I did buy some beautiful Japanese vehicles which served me well so I guess it all comes down to what is important to you at this moment in making these decisions. Currently my main objectives in choice are being as green as one can be to help Mother Earth heal from the destruction we have inflicted on her.

Dear Omar,Thanks for your inquiry. As this is a very new item, haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but all the reviews I've read give it high marks. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

This happened to me once before but it wasn't a problem with the tone arm. I tried to play different records to isolate the problem and it turned out that my vinyl record was defective. There was no visible scratch on the LP so I didn't initially think there was an issue on the music. You may want to check your vinyl or look under the needle to see if some lint has accumulated there.

I got mine about 4 weeks ago, I was immediately disappointed but I had to give it a chance, it slowly grew on me and now I really love it. I can hear lots of new dynamics and sounds in most of my music. I think it's a brilliant medium volume personal speaker.

I have read the same thing, but both J&R; Music and Amazon continue to sell this item -- is it an upgrade ... a NEW model ... or a close-out of the old potentially "defective" unit?

Hello. I had the same problem - the downloaded songs did not match my playlist. I returned the item, actually. Very bad quality, sound and adjustment in ear.

You should get the OU2T Tenor !! It's great for beginners AND pro's. I've only had to tune it once since I got it and I play it almost everyday. It has that cool island look and sound :)

I was in the same boat. This is the first guitar I have owned PERSONALLY and I love it. Had it for 6 months or so now. Now that I know a bit more about guitars it is still one of the best sounding and solid guitars I've played. I would recommend finding one and trying it out as everyone likes different sounds. But 300 dollars for a very solid guitar isn't bad at all. I'd just go for it, it'll serve you well.

I bought mine from this guy - ZTRide. He claimed that it was geniune but my experience told me that its a fake one. Especially to fake beats, one side is easier to lose than another. its a dont buy to me but quality is not so bad. $176.5 for a fake one. Not happy.

Steve, the recording quality was very bad and we ended up returning the unit. My older sister has an immense album collection we want to convert but we are still looking for a good quality converter and have yet to find one. This has been some years now since we started looking. good luckmc

Wendy, I am a guitar player, but a friend of mine that plays violin professionally at Disneyland tried the AKG 411 and said that it was too midrangy for his tastes. He prefers a lavalier mic he paid $25 for at Radio Shack. He places the mic behind the bridge. He plays live with it and has no feedback problems. I have heard it and it sounds great. He said he prefers this mic over the expensive mics he has tried. D

No this one is a singing version, I had to send it back to get the regular one.

Did you buy this without seeing it first? I would love some impressions of the set.(NVM, I saw your other thread. Please post back once you have it.)

Hello! I got Valencia CL-160 couple of months ago. Honestly, I'd rather pay two times more and get a cheaper version of Cordoba or Yamaha. (I have Yamaha 3/4 and it sounds brilliant).The guitar is rough and sound like a piece of wood. Strings are too high and you can't adjust them because there is no key hole. Electronic part is very cheap - the sound is awful. As usual: you're getting what you payed. Sorry for such a negative comment!

It's supposed to play part of What A Wonderful World. My mom lives out of state, she loved it, and hers did play the music. But without hearing it personally, I cannot say what part it does, if I had to guess it's whatever is in the sellers description... or.... "And I think to myself what a wonderful world" all I know for the price it's a steal. No idea who the person performing the audio is Hope this was of help
