Hardy doesn't recognize usb turntable

[simone]

i agree on every single point
you can buy technics1200 for 200$ or less and riaa preamps on ebay for
15$, yeah that s not top of the line stuff but if you pick a decent
cartdrige you re all done, add a good soundcard of course.
the only reason to use usb turntables would be for timecoded vinyls
take care
