Great record player with decent sound, it has an Audio technica cartridge on it so it won’t ruin your records like most inexpensive record players would. Connects fairly easy to an external Bluetooth speaker or headphones and actually sounds pretty good if you use patch cords and connect to a regular receiver and speakers. A good holdover until you can afford a turntable.

I had a portable record player when I was a kid in the early 70’sand have since moved on to some pricey component stereo gear. So why go backwards? Curiosity? Conversation piece? Perhaps a bit of nostalgia? Maybe a bit of everything. Mostly my turntable has been in a box since I moved. It’s very similar to the old portable record players of the 60-70’s. The turntable is fine for 45’s, but does not fully support a 12” LP. The LP hangs off the turntable about 2 inches. It’s lightweight which you want for portability, but mass helps dampen vibrations. While this is not really geared toward high fidelity, it does sound better than record players of old thanks to modern electronics, Audio Technica cartridge, and speakers. I wasn’t sure what to expect, and I honestly expected to be underwhelmed. But I was still enjoying spinning albums I have missed hearing over 8 hours later, still on the initial charge going strong. You can leave it plugged in and run off AC power if you prefer. If you run out of albums, you can pair your phone or other device with to the Victrola and use it as a Bluetooth speaker. You can also pair Bluetooth headphones or speakers to hear the albums through. There are also a mini-DIN headphone jack and line level stereo RCA jacks (no phono pre-amp needed) for connecting to a stereo receiver or powered speakers on the back. But no need for them, the built-in speaker sounds surprisingly good. A spindle adapter to play 45’s secures on the top side. Flip the unit over (after locking the arm down) and you’ll find a small compartment big enough for the AC Adapter. The strap attaches securely. No extra pieces to lose, all the parts are always with you. The cartridge has a plastic cover attached with clear tape. New record player owners may not notice this or know to look for it. Be sure to remove the cover before use. A different color tape that stands out or a “REMOVE ME” tag would have been good to use here. The Victrola and the records are larger and much heavier than the chain of successors that edged it out of the market; the cassette Walkman, the portable DVD player, IPod/Zune, and the phone you’ll likely also be carrying around with you regardless. And unlike all the other formats, you also need to be stationary when using it. While it is more capable with more features, I don’t really see this as replacement for what we currently think of as a “portable music player’. Unless you are one of the few that swore off digital music. But I enjoy it and am unexpectedly impressed with it. It is a conversation starter, kids really love the physicality of a record playing, it’s a great gift, a novelty, and a whole lot of fun. I suspect you’ll play I more than you ever expected to. This player and an album or two would make a great gift.
