For those of you not familliar with woot.com, it is a site that sells one item per day... today's item is an Ion Audio USB Turntable.
I know we've had the USB vs sound card debate in the past, but just wanted to share...

My only reservations abut these turntables is the lack of a stylus capable of playing (reasonably properly) a 78 rpm disk. Also as we have discussed before many "78's" actually drifted quite a bit from this speed.
True, if you want a convenient deck to play your standard vinyl on and perhaps try a 78 or 2 out of curiosity then this is fine. Any more than that and this is not the deck for you.
