Review: Works well - I had seen reviews and YouTube videos of this and decided that it was a lot better than letting it run in the last groove if I fell asleep or went to make something to eat, it came well packaged and in good condition initially it seemed very plasticky (if thats a word) it comes with no clear instructions on what the 2 sliders are for one on the front and one on the back, after a bit of playing with them the front one alters the hight of the lifting bar and the back one the strength of the lift, the settings it came with practically launched the tonearm into the air and back down on the record (not something you want to happen) I ended up with the back slider just above midway on my project debut carbon evo. Once set up and after keeping an eye on it for a few records it works perfectly every time, nice slow lift no bounce I found one of my records that had a small run off area and set it to that. Its a bit fiddly but a guy on YouTube shows how to do it with a business card you need 3 hands cos before its fixed in place the arm knocks it out of place but once fitted its brilliant well recommended
Review: Just what I needed - If like me you were sick of getting up every 15-20 minutes to lift the needle off your vinyl then this is a must, no longer do I have the sudden "oh crap" moment as you leap off the sofa to grab the needle as soon as the last song plays. I was able to pick mine up for £20 which when you weigh up the pros vs cons is worth it but I've seen it now at £50 from some sellers, it is NOT worth that much due to it's build quality. Don't get me wrong it's not flimsy but at the end of the day it's a piece of light plastic with some sticky tape on the bottom! Pros Works as it should Gives me a more relaxing listen Adjustable height Adjustable tone arm lift strength Cons Expensive for what you get Does need some tinkering (YouTube videos) No instructions (go to company site)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with a Technics SL1200?**
A: I’m not sure it will your turntable is Direct Drive. This is very similar to the Audio Technica AT-LP1240 USB turntable in the design of the Tone Arm Assembly there isn’t enough space to mount the Q-UP between the turntable platter and the TAA. Therefore, it won’t work with the AT turntable nor do I Imagine the Technics. Other observations are I passed the Q-UP to a friend who has a pro-ject turntable and although there’s enough space between the tone arm and the record plater, the plater isn’t high Deep enough for the tone arm to clear the arm of the Q-UP lifter even in the lowest position . Apparently Q-UP.Com website have a list of Turntables that this lifter is compatible with. Other observations are that the lifter arm wouldn’t lock in position, therefore I took a Philips type screw driver to slacken off the screw on the body of the lifter and re- tightened gently this improved the locking mechanism of the lifter satisfactory. Other observations are that this lifter is made of plastic, prices are extremely expensive from Analogue Seduction and others at GBP 45 and upwards, it isn’t necessary to charge such an amount for this item. I paid GBP20 delivered. Other observations are the Audio Technica sell a lifter for GBP110 the quality apparently excellent. However, I have no idea if it will work with a direct drive turntable I suspect not perhaps only for some belt driven turntables.
There are some turntable manufacturers making auto decks for the Audio enthusiast but I suspect not the higher end of the turntable market hence the AT lifter for belt driven higher end turntables but the Q-UP would be ideal for the right application. Trust this helps but please let me know if you find that you need further clarification. see less

**Q: will this item fit an audio technica atlpx120**
A: The Q Up can be lowered or raised to suit arm height. I have 2 fitted to 2 home made decks. One for 33RPM and a light weight Rega arm, and the 2nd for 78RPM with a Garrard TPA 12 which is heavy.  First make sure there is room between your platter and the arm base, the Q Up is 12mm wide. Measure from the deck face to the under side of the arm tube in its playing position. if it is more than 34mm it should fit as this is the height of the Q Up lift arm without any of the provided raising blocks. If needed for a higher arm or a very deep platter you can use the raising blocks. The Q Up works very well for me

**Q: Will it work with Music Hall 2.2**
A: hi- visit their website- there is a guide to what it will fit

**Q: Anyone please know if this'll work on a clearaudio concept turntable? thanks!**
A: If there's enough space in between the platter and the base of the tonearm to accommodate it when installed, it should work. This tonearm lifter is  height adjustable, the strength when lifting the tonearm is adjustable and so as the sensitivity to trigger the lifter to lift when pushed by the tonearm at the end of the track. It only uses a sticker at the base to stick into the plinth. Ensure to adjust the strength of the lifter just enough to lift the tonearm because if it's too strong it will throw your tonearm to high and will keep jumping on it and a tendency the tonearm can fall into the record while it is still playing and will cause a sound blast. It is a very good product indeed when installed properly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Feels cheap but absolutely does the job
*by N***L on 7 August 2022*

Inelegant but effective. Set up in 5 minutes on my Debut Carbon EVO and it works as advertised. Once you set the force to a lower amount it is whilst not smooth is not too violent lifting. I have been tempted to buy the Audio-Technica AT6006R as a nicer looking and smoother option but honestly am not sure it is worth so much more money.
