Q: Can these speakers be connected to a record player
A: It depends on the record player; they're not all the same. These speakers need a line-level input signal. Phonographs using magnetic cartridges aren't strong enough by themselves and need another circuit -- a phono preamp -- to boost their signal. Some phonographs may have that preamp already built in, but most inexpensive ones don't and would need an external phono preamp.

I absolutely love these speakers. I’ve always had portable speakers with crappy sound and these are a game changer. I love the bass and how full the sound is. I played around with all types of music and they all sound great. One thing i love most is the look and size of them. The wooden outside makes them seem more modest and modern and they fit right on my tv stand without looking bulky. I also really love the controls that are on the side of the speaker. You can play around with bass and treble and make it your own. They also come with a remote which is nice. They were super easy to set up and I had no issues. One thing that could be changed is the fact that you have to connect your device through an aux cord. I would have thought that all speakers are Bluetooth now. Regardless of that I love these speakers and highly recommend!

These speakers have really surprised me. Even though they’re small, the sound quality is very good, clear, balanced, and powerful enough to fill a room. Their compact size is actually a big advantage, since they fit perfectly in small spaces without sacrificing performance. I use them in a room about 8m x 5m, and they sound great. Overall, excellent value and a solid choice for anyone looking for good sound in a compact setup.

I am highly impressed with these little speakers. I was worried with such a small woofer (4 inch) that they would not produce much bass but I was wrong. Now, they are not going to shake the house or wake the neighbors but they do a really good job at filling up the room. I am using them as PC speakers and they are amazing. When just connected to my PC and with the simple bass and treble controls on the side of the speakers, they sound good. However, when I run them through Sonar (free DSP type software from SteelSeries) it really woke up these speakers. Using the 10 band EQ with Sonar I was able to completely tune the speakers to fit specific audio sources (movies, music, gaming, etc). If you are using the R1280T without any EQ controls, you owe it to yourself to get an EQ (software or hardware). It is hard to express in a review how much better the R1280T sounds when running through my EQ settings. For $100, the R1280T is definitely punching above its weight class and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
