Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was a great purchase. Feels like I got an awesome deal for how well it works and how nice it looks and how easy it was to put together and to use. I feel kinda silly for waiting this long to get one….

My son is just starting to get into the world of vinyl records and this Sony wireless turntable offers an affordable, convenient option to enjoy vinyl sound via a Bluetooth speaker or a wired connection. It features quality construction, built-in phono preamp and one step fully automatic playback. Once paired with your speaker, push in the power button, located on the back of the turntable, push the start button located on the face of the turntable and the tone arm will automatically raise, move itself into place and then lower itself for convenient playing. On the face of the turntable, there is also a button for up/down (pause play of the record) and stop. Auto-stop will kick in once you've reached the end of your album to automatically return the arm to its resting position. The turntable itself features a simple, sleek design with a belt drive mechanism and an aluminum, die-cast platter. The turntable supports speeds of 33 and 45 rpms and also provides a gain switch on the rear of the turntable to match the audio level of your record; low (-4db), mid (0db) and high (+6db). The sound played on our Bluetooth speaker was very rich and it was quite enjoyable to put on some of our old vinyl records to bring back some great memories. We are sure that our son will get the same enjoyment and have the convenience of Bluetooth to boot. Should he want to rip any albums to digital via USB that is also an added feature on this Sony turntable.

This turntable was a replacement for a Sony turntable I purchased 30 years ago before Bluetooth was invented. I wanted a replacement that I could either hook up to my stereo receiver and speakers, or pair with my Bluetooth speakers. My albums were beginning to skip on my old turntable as well. This turntable is amazing! It was easy to put together and pair with my Bluetooth speaker, and my albums sound great. No skipping at all, even though my albums are more than 40 years old. I love that it's automatic--when the album is done, the tone arm returns to its resting position. I can also connect it directly to my laptop, so I'll be digitizing several of my albums. I love this turntable!

You may have not noticed but music on LP vinyl is coming back with a vengeance, a new age of listeners has fallen in love with the wide range of sounds that only vinyl can reproduce. If you are curious about the new/retro wave in music and the hoopla you may be hearing from your kid and their friends (like me) you will need a good turntable to see what is causing the commotion. Recall my first high end turn table time and the sheer joy of the music that flowed from its needle, but times have changed with the advent of new tech. Today’s turntables seem to have perfected the tech of bringing out the very best from the LP. The Sony PS-LX310BT turntable delivers the tunes and adds the latest in technology bringing Bluetooth ability to stream your music to any room in your home as well as direct wiring to your receiver/amp. Add USB for ripping digital copies of your vinyl to your computer and onto other devices and you have a winner. One feature I appreciate is the built in Pre-amp, allowing to select wiring directly to a dedicated receiver/amp or using the pre-amp to plug directly into speakers. Good stuff. Highlight Features on this machine: • Streaming to headphones, wireless speakers and soundbars. • Pre-amp • Anti-Skid • Auto Return • USB ripping • Aluminum platter and tone arm • Diamond stylus (needle) • Gain switch (low, med, high) • Bluetooth • RCA wired connection • Duster cover which protects against acoustic pressure from speakers If you are missing the days of old when music came through crisp, clear and deep and as most have a wired music life you can now wed the two with the Sony. Plus, the Sony turntable looks great in the living room.

This is my first record player that I have owned since 1987. Back when record players were a staple item of entertainment the high-end units were fully automatic and sounded good. Yeah, I know, there were many other features back then that made a turntable top of the line but those were out of my strata, the features that we looked for had the simple conveniences that I listed; my bar, my standard. Anyway, this record player has those features and sounds amazing. I had no idea that this budget priced record player would perform so well and has dragged me full tilt back into vinyl music. It started with The Wall as a Christmas present and now my collection has gone well beyond that. The cartridge is not replaceable, however I have upgraded the needle, (oh sorry, the stylist) and have had a noticeable improvement to an already great sounding record player. Overall I would highly recommend this record player, especially if you're like me and want to be able to come home from work, put a record on, push a button, and listen to your favorite music, oh by the way, you won't have to think about how many more hours you'll have to work to pay for your record player because this one is nicely priced and easily competes with record players three times it's price range.

I upgraded from the bluetooth crosley cruiser and the sony ps-lx310bt is better in every single way imaginable. The sound quality is absolutely insane. The fact that I can connect my bluetooth speakers, headphones, etc is a huge bonus. The auto start/stop keeps my records in such good shape. The overall look of the record player is sleek and modern. I recommend this record player both to beginners and audiophiles.

Great quality, easy to install and easy to use. The Bluetooth option made it really easy to accommodate in our living room without the limitation of cables while still giving us the sound quality we wanted.

It's simple to use, while looking sleek, adding a nice look to the room. All the while it also sounds amazing. I had a cheap suitcase player beforehand and the difference is quite literally night and day. Minor to no skips, bluetooth enabled, simple button press to play and stop. My only issue would be the cover wasn't as clean as it should be for buying it in "Excellent" condition, minor scuff here and there. Otherwise this is an amazing vinyl player that I would recommend to everyone.

Just go this and already love this player. Easy to set up, added a new slip mat and it makes the vinyl color pop. Bluetooth is great but decided not to play my records that way and the sound is crisp!!

I like this record player. Like I said, it does what it is supposed to do. It is big(ger) than I had expected, 13 x 17.5 x 3 h, luckily I was still able to fit it where I put it. You have to put a bit of it together; not too much though. Just take everything out of the box and follow the directions. And do NOT throw anything away until you find the little circle that goes in the middle (for 45 albums) and the cover clips; they are hiding in the Styrofoam packaging! PHYSICAL: It is like a digital record player. There is a Start, Stop, "Pause"/"Move" buttons on the front. The buttons DO say start and stop. but the 3rd button does not say pause and/or move, it is just what they do. There is a bluetooth button to turn on and pair Bluetooth inside. There is a switch to select 45 or 33 and another switch to select 7 or 12, also inside. By inside I mean when you lift up the cover. There is a power button on the back. Once you know where it is the first time, you will not need to see the back to find it again; your finger will go straight to it. It has an output switch on the back. I have it connected to my bookshelf system so I use the supplied audio cable with the Line input (it is on Line by default). It also has a gain switch with 3 settings, also on the back.The USB cable port is on the back as well. This USB port is for recording. I'll come back to that. It has a cover that lifts up and closes. You do not have to remove the lid to use the player. USE/PLAYING: First, I used it with the Line input into my bookshelf system. I put my bookshelf on Aux. It worked great. Second, I tested the bluetooth. I bluetoothed with the same bookshelf system. It worked. I then bluetoothed with my portable bluetooth player. It worked. Then I bluetoothed it with my wireless headphones. It worked. Read the directions for pairing. It's easy. It can save up to 8 pairings (so that you don't have to keep pairing the same device already paired). But only turn on one bluetooth at a time when pairing, otherwise it will chose the bluetooth device that it wants to choose. You can also delete all the pairings (it does not look like you can delete individual pairings; you either delete all or none). Again, read the directions. RECORDING: I had to order the USB cable before I could test the recording feature because I did not know it needed a different kind of USB cable. It uses B to A (like a printer cable). I ordered a cheap 16 footer. According to the directions, do not use a hub, extension, thumb drive, etc. Just the cable and it must connect to a computer. I used my laptop and downloaded the software it suggested. I followed the directions and it worked. OTHER: There is a usb port somewhere on the inside, which is used for updates only. There is a slot on the outer right side of the player where you can stash the circle that goes in the middle of 45 records. This is the first record player I have owned so I can't compare it to another. I don't need anything more than this as far as a record player. I like it. I recommend it. Have fun and enjoy it. Peace.

No issues very easy to set up good design. You can’t really upgrade it, but you don’t need to upgrade anyways

Wanted to dust off my record collection. Spent a lot of time shopping for a new turntable. The Bluetooth feature was a big draw to this one. It was really easy to set up and I am able to Bluetooth directly to my Sony stereo receiver. The sound is great and It looks really great! A lot of the reviews made me question this purchase but I couldn’t be happier (Only had it for a few weeks). There are a lot of pros. The only con would be that the buttons are a little lesser quality than I would expect from Sony.

Works great, Best sound ever. easy to set up. the wife loved it, She can play all her old records.

im loving my first turntable. the ease of using it is so incomparable. the power and quality produces is decent and im satisfied with it. the price is affordable. not sure how long it will last because I've been playing with it almost everyday. starting into vinyl lately and this just came right in time. and of course love the bluetooth capability. easy connection and nothing complicated. simple assembly. only from sony. thanks best buy!

Don't let the simple look fool you. This player is engineered for exceptional audio performance. Its slim, minimalist profile makes a quiet statement, while delivering rich, powerful sound through any wired or Bluetooth speaker system.

I was looking for a good replacement for an older player and reviewed several different ones. I chose this Sony player based on brand and previous experience with it. I am very happy I did. The player is very simple to use and the sound quality is amazing. I definitely recommend this record player.

got this turntable to play my old vinyl on, been missing it for years, good match with my new sony receiver , its basic but sound great and works good, like the fact its blue tooth, but I'm using it wired to my receiver, one takeaway is you cant change the cartridge, you can change the needle , but again for the price, its an excellent performing turntable, Setup was easy, did try the blue tooth and it paired up easy, very happy with it

Love this player. Very easy to setup and use. Great quality.

Oldest kid wanted this vinyl record player and it hasn’t disappointed. Plays great, easy setup, looks awesome, and is compatible with his other Sony stereo equipment.

This turntable is fantastic! The sound quality is rich and clear, with a deep warmth that really brings vinyl to life. It's easy to set up, and the design is sleek and stylish. The build feels solid, and the controls are intuitive.
