Digital camera reviews of Crosley CR248 Songwriter CD Recorder - Paprika
Digital camera Review: LP to CD player recorder
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this because we wanted to be able to put our old records onto CDs and it does this very well. We were very pleased with the sound from the speakers and have this unit sitting in our living room. We listen to the LPs with our friends all the time. Being able to listen to our Lps from the 60's and 70's is fantastic. The Crosley CR248 Songwriter is easy to use and looks good. You may find yourself playing your LPs more than recording them, as this gives you the pure enjoyment of the original sounds.Digital camera Review: LP's To Cd's
Summary: 5 Stars
This item works GREAT. Since I purchased the Crosley I have had nothing but pleasure. You get a chance to listen to some of your old LP's that you haven't heard in a long time. You can copy in a couple of ways (1) copy track 1 all sides of the album or (2) copy track for track. Haven't had time to copy from cassette to CD yet. No problems with equipment. If you have a lot of albums you need to get one.Digital camera Review: Looks great, but didn't work!

I heard about this product on a local radio show, and purchased for my husband for Christmas. When we set it up, the radio worked, but when he attempted to record a cassette to a CD, nothing happened, and even the radio failed to work after that. Don't know if the turntable worked, as we returned it. A great idea, but in our case, not a good product.Digital camera Review: Love my Crosley Songwriter!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't believe some of the negative reviews I've read for the Crosley Songwriter. As I write this (October 4, 2009) I am listening to Ray Lynch "No Blue Thing" CD (and just listened to Handel's Water Music) and the sound quality is superb! I previously owned a bunch of components ca. 1975 (Pioneer receiver, Dual turntable, Sony CD player) so I know good sound when I hear it, and I like my Crosley better. I've only owned it a few weeks and have not used the recorder yet, so I can't speak for the quality there. But everything else works perfectly. The remote is a cinch to use. It's easy to program and scan CD's. You can hear the subtle differences in the EQ settings. And my old records sound better than ever - the speeds on the 33 1/3 and 45 settings are fine (I haven't played my old 78's yet). My tapes also sound fabulous. Maybe it's because I bought my unit directly from Crosley. I also got the matching Richmond Entertainment Center cabinet, which is beautiful. My set is in paprika and the color is rich and goes with my decor. Love this product and am recommending it to friends.Digital camera Review: Major Wear and Tear On Your Records
Summary: 2 Stars
This turntable and most if not all the Crosley's turntables are overpriced for what it gives you. First off, the sound quality is not very good and the tone arm does not have a weight control to prevent the stylus from severely damaging your ablums if accidently kicked or knocked. Also without weight control on the tone arm, more pressure is applied on the sound groves and your albums won't last very long. You can definitely get a better deal for a turntable equipted with tone arm weight control so the stylus will ease up your fine albums and still give you excellent sound quality.
