🤦🏼♀️ I was having the exact same problem with the jumping, went through everything over and over again, even got friends to check it over incase I had entirely lost my mind but then I found this video so thank you 🙏 no more jumping!!!..🥰
Hey man, someone linked me your video as a "fix" for the anti-skate issue.. specifically, he linked to the 3 minute mark where you talk about moving the counter-weight all the way on... That's a bad idea. What you're doing is setting the stylus weight to over 6grams. That's beyond the recommended range of 2.5 to 4.5g for the ATN3600L that comes with these TT's, and will lead to premature wear/damage to your records. I get the best out of my Marley TT with the tracking force set to 3g (that would be all the way around back to 0 on the counter-weight once you've set it correctly to zero), and the anti-skate set to 0.5, although with some records I still have to take the anti-skate off completely to stop it skipping on inner tracks.
3:26 I don't think that you should push the counterweight all the way to the tone arm. The counterweight needs to be balanced properly so it would not put too much weight to and damage the record. It might be skipping because your anti-skate isn't placed in 1 (which is the most ideal setting for my Marley)
Thanks--glad you enjoyed it. Are you asking what stylus is used for this turntable? And there is another version of the Stir It Up turntable that's wireless with bluetooth, but the version I reviewed is the wired version.
The headshell is (I believe) an Audio Technica ATN3600, which houses a conical needle which is ok for old records or 45s or for someone looking for a starter unit, but it lacks the detail of an elliptical stylus. Usually with these cheaper turntables the headshells aren't upgradable, but I don't own this TT so it's possible I'm wrong about that. Frankly, I'd recommend an Audio Technica LP60X over this unit, which has the same headshell, but is fully automatic and has a slightly better build. But that's just me.
@@Thievius333 I think you should be able to buy the elliptical audio technica stylus similar to the conical one . The connection to the headshell should be the same . I've done so with my Rega.
Hi, I have this Marley Turntable and a Marshall Stanmore II. Up to last week it was working perfectly fine with the RCA output on the turntable and the jack output on the speaker. Since I moved (and pack it all up nice and cosy in boxes of origin...) it does not work anymore. I have tried everything, new "head" for the turtable, new RCA/Jack cable and even tried double RCA cables. Nothing seems to work. Is it possible that the RCA Output on the turntable is damaged? I do not undertand what is going on and it is slowly driving me nuts ... Can someone help please? Thank you :)
I'm a broke audiophile, so I'm pretty much only in the market for budget to mid level turntables 😂 I think I'll have to pass, there's better turntables for the money. Thanks for the honest review!!!
Hi! Which ones would you recommend for this price range? I’m coming from my father’s old technics SLD202 turntable. It still works but acts iffy with our receivers speakers.
If anybody could give an advice on how to fix mine 😩I got one like 2y ago but little bit later it started acting funny by skipping the songs all the time 😪 Since merely a decorative piece in my living room, not able to fully enjoy my vinyl collection.
Hello, I’m looking for turntable. It’s my first time. Unfortunately in Turkey the prices are doubled. So I’m checking something around 200$. I don’t have any speaker etc. Should I choose Crosley C62C (325$) or this Marley stir it up with Marley - get together speakers (total price is 525$) ?As far as I understand the main difference is; C62 doesn’t have anti skating but it has dust cover. Marley (with speakers) is 200$ more expensive, it has anti skating but it has fabric cover. Did you like Marley’s fabric cover? Do you think that it is effective?
Well, I prefer a hard plastic dust cover over a fabric cover in general. It’s just a bit easier to cover your turntable. But a fabric cover is certainly better than nothing when it comes to dealing with dust.
I saw that the belt was twisted upside down around the motor axis. Not good. I've seen the Stir it up and am not eniterly certain that this is a sturdy player. It does look good though.
I think the cartridge completely lets it down! Especially if it is what it looks like - a cheap AT3600 with a conical stylus on a carbon cantilever... A cheap AT95 elliptical should make a huge difference already. Apparently there is a LUX version of this TT with an AT95E but it's 400 euros, bonkers!
Best thing about this TT: It will turn off when you get that call… Worst thing: You did not play STIR IT UP by Bob Marley or similar! That counterweight thing should have been explained in the manual for those looking for a vinyl experience…
i have this’d turntable with bluetooth. no issues with skipping but pushing the counter weight all the ways down is a really bad idea. it can damage the record and. the needle
Love it when people just make simple and good reviews.
Banger ❤
Thanks-appreciate you watching.

Excellent presentation- 2 questions. What about the needle? And, I assume not Bluetooth compatible? Thanks for the review!

Ha--too funny! Thanks for watching.
Beeing broke is an audiophile mantra bro ^_^
What turntable would you recommend?
@@ElliottPowell-u5x ☝️for entry level audio technica, either their lp60x or lp3xbt

Try adjusting the anti skating and counter weight.

@@DevotedtoVinyl Thank you so much. I really appreciate 😇
Is this Bluetooth and wireless compatible?
They have a wireless and non-wireless version
@@JenniferLaveryFBE thanks!
@@richmck007 I have the bluetooth version . It still has phono sockets in case you want to hard wire it though.
**Hey Michael - I lived outside of CLE for a while, U ever been to 'A Separate Reality Records'? I got so many awesome records there.
That's great to hear. I haven't been there but I'll definitely keep it on my radar!

no cover ... rules out this deck
It has a cover
Nice design... but bad sounding.
This goes for those that prefer design over sound
Sounds ok to me
@@stuartshire good for you! ;)
I've tried one some time ago. It's not worth the money. Expensive electronic trash. Very poor, till to no quality.
Harsh . It sounds perfectly decent to me . I compared it to my planar 3 - not as good but not bad at all.
