Excellent entry-level turntable!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An amazing turntable for someone who's just getting into the hobby! Easy to set up, sounds great, and is affordable without cutting costs!. Would highly recommend to anyone who is starting their vinyl journey and is on a budget. I do suggest, however, that you read up on properly setting up the counterweight, although the manual also goes into pretty good detail.

Best budget turntable with anti skate and preamp
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So what I upgraded from is that suitcase record player on the left of the Insignia turntable in the center. Exactly one year ago today I started my vinyl collection and bought that portable record player loving my new hobby. What I didn’t realize was that not only was I cheating myself out of audio quality, but also hours of stress trying to understand why new or unscratched albums would continue to skip over and over. The Insignia turntable may be a budget player, however it sounds phenomenal with my bookshelf speakers and is by far the most inexpensive turntable to have a counterweight and anti skate. I would highly recommend this turntable for anyone that doesn’t need a $500 record player or usb function to rip your albums. If you are looking for a great budget turntable this is it!

Great Turntable
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Note : The slipmat seen in my photo is not the one it came with. This turntable is amazing. The Sound quality is excellent. I love that it has a headphone jack. I can listen to my explicit records without my room-mate's 7 year old grand kid hearing it. Also, there is just something special about listening to a vinyl record through headphones. You can really hear a lot more than you can with just speakers. It was very easy to set up. And it looks like it was actually manufactured for Best Buy's "Insignia" brand by Audio Technica, based off the fact Audio Technica's logo is literally on the needle cartridge. I've always wanted one of their record players and it looks like I may have gotten one disguised as an Insignia. I really love this turntable and for 130 dollars, it's a great value

Great Value
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You really can't ask for more at this price point. Bluetooth output, a bent tonearm with adjustable anti-skate and counterweight, an aluminum platter... the list goes on. It even includes RCA cables and an extra belt for the platter. This does require a bit of familiarity with turntables in order to operate correctly (definitely not a "first time" machine) but if you are used to traditional turntables and setups, you shouldn't have any problems. For everyone else, just read the manual carefully, and you should be good to go. Highly recommended!

Willing to give an actualreviewwithinthecomingdays
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wish i could show pics. So. Again. I have YET to try this device and im sure i will like it but i bought 2 turntables. One for me and one for my neice coming up, so for me im opening my box and set up my turntable to realize i have no powercables and instruction guide at all! Not trying to throw a big fit but imagine if it had been christmas and she had picked the dud. Idk. I know this issue will be resolved but very disapointed by this.

Q: QuestionDoes this turntable require a receiver?
Asked by Jnk92.
- A:Answer No, not if you use powered speakers--it has an integrated amplifier. If you do not use powered speakers, you must run the signal from the turntable through a receiver or amplifier setup to the speakers. Hope this helps.
