Customer Ratings & Reviews

This turntable was perfect for my needs - fully automatic playing and repeating of records, has a brand name cartridge, and the bluetooth function allows me to be flexible in how I listen (headphones, waterproof bluetooth speaker for using in the hot tub, or I can use the full stereo for listening with larger groups). Yes, I know it's not "audiophile" quality I also don't want to invest 400 plus to be able to enjoy my records and frankly sound quality is quite good - I compared Sublime's "40 oz to freedom" on remastered vinyl vs. playing from original CD on my bookshelf speakers and sound quality is comparable.

I love it. It connect to my wireless speakers and send out the best music. I played all my old records and no problems at all. It's a keeper.

This was well packed and arrived safely. Unpacking was a simple job of sliding contents out of the box. Everything is pre-assembled – except for the platter – the dust cover is on, and the cartridge and stylus installed. Setup consists of placing platter on the spindle, pulling the belt over the motor pulley, and put on the platter mat. Remove the tone arm tie down and the tape from stylus guard, then carefully slide the guard off towards the front. The cover is removable if you prefer. The operation is straightforward, and can be used with blue tooth, switchable line or phono output. The turntable is fully automatic. There is a slide switch for size and speed. Tactile switches for raise / lower tonearm, start / end play, and even has a repeat function. On start, the arm raised and lowered very gently. On stop, the arm returned to park and the platter stopped. The mechanism worked very well, was very quiet, and eliminates the need to actually handle the tone arm. I tested using a powered set of bookshelf speakers, first with blue tooth, and then RCA line outputs. I could not check speed accuracy, however I didn't notice any flutter or rumble – the turntable seemed very quiet. This ships with an Audio Technica ATN3600L moving magnet cartridge installed, with frequency response of 20Hz-20kHz, and tracking force: 2.5 – 3.5 grams. I auditioned the sound quality using different types of music. First was Alan Parsons Project (remember them?), and also some classical with John Williams. Both albums are in pristine condition. First with blue tooth – and the blue tooth paired flawlessly. The overall sound was fairly good, but I did find the midrange a little forward. Then I used the RCA line output, and the sound was a little more balanced. The only negative I feel, is the lack of tracking force adjustment. This means you are limited to using the exact replacement cartridge. It cannot be up graded to a different cartridge. Overall though, this is quite a nice turntable with a lot of flexibility, and can allow you to enjoy albums again – or begin your own collection!.

This Victrola Automatic Turntable will bring you back to the classic with some modern tech. It came nicely packed but I immediately noticed how light it felt. It was extremely light and that only led to one thing, not a lot of components inside of it. The built quality in my opinion was ok. Mostly plastic besides the aluminum platter. If you never used a turntable in the past this one is fairly simple to use. I did encounter some issues during my initial setup. The belt that spun the plate was coming off after the record stopped. Also the timing was extremely off. After several attempts, I decided to flip the belt from the inside out, and that fixed both issues. What I like mostly about this turntable is that you are not required to have an amplifier to use it. You have the option to use preamp bookshelf speakers, and bluetooth speakers. I connected it to my Marantz and it worked perfectly. I also connected it to some of my Marshall’s bluetooth speakers and it sounds great. The simplicity of use can't be taken away. This device has 4 buttons, play/stop, arm raiser/lower, repeat power and two toggle switches for the speed and size of the record. Just set the record on the plate and hit play and the automatic arm will do the rest. When you stop the record the arm will retract itself. The Sound quality sounded great. In both wired and wireless. It actually brought back old memories. Overall the Victrola Automatic Turntable performs well and will be a good choice to enjoy your vinyl records. It will bring back old memories with modern technology. Automatic arm, simplicity to use, and the ability to be connected wireless can be widely adopted for anyone who doesn’t have an amplifier. Dispetie is not top notch built quality it does look great and sound great. Replacing the magnet cartridge is also a breeze. In the box you get the Turnable, power adapter, turntable platter, 45 RPM adapter, RCA cable and manual.

This is my second Bluetooth-enabled record player, and I must say, the differences between my old one and the Victrola VPT-800 are night and day. Right from the start, the setup process was a breeze. Setup of the Victrola VPT-800 is incredibly straightforward. Victrola seems to have taken all the guesswork out of getting this turntable up and running. For those who aren’t particularly tech-savvy or don't want to spend hours reading through complicated instructions, this is a huge plus. The instructions are easy to follow, they guide you through each step in a simple, logical manner. One of the most significant improvements with the Victrola VPT-800 is that it doesn’t require any fussing around with the balance of the tonearm’s counterweight. The Victrola VPT-800 eliminates all that unnecessary hassle. You simply plug it in, and it’s ready to go. I have a high-quality Bluetooth speaker that I use for most of my audio needs, and pairing it with the Victrola VPT-800 was incredibly easy. All I had to do was put my speaker into pairing mode, press the main button on the turntable once, and within seconds, they were connected. The first thing I noticed after pressing play was the sound quality. The difference is like night and day. With my old turntable, the sound was very tinny and quiet, I guess the old one needs a new stylus or was just plain defective. It sounds just as good if not better than my MP3's or streaming services. One feature I didn’t expect to appreciate as much as I did is the automatic tonearm. On my old record player, I had to manually lift and place the tonearm at the start of each record, and when the record was finished, it would just keep spinning unless I manually returned the tonearm to its cradle. While this might not sound like a big deal, it was one of those small annoyances that added up over time. With the Victrola VPT-800, pressing play automatically moves the tonearm to the correct position on the record, and when the record is done, the tonearm returns to its cradle. This might seem like a minor detail, but it’s these small conveniences that really enhance the overall listening experience. It just makes everything feel smoother and more polished. Also offered is standard RCA output, which gives you the option to connect it to a traditional speaker system if you prefer a wired connection. If you’re after a simple, great-sounding turntable that works right out of the box, this is the one!

This was my first time setting up and using a turntable and found everything to be simple and straightforward. Instructions with pictures were included in the box and were easy to follow. The turntable was ready to use in about 5 minutes. Victrola did a nice job in designing the turntable and the clear plastic dust cover gives a nice view of the vinyl disc while it's playing. The turntable also comes with a slip mat to place underneath the vinyl to prevent the vinyl from getting scratched and to ultimately reduce vibrations and audio skipping while in use. Although I did find it to reduce the amount of skipping in some of the music tracks I played, it didn't completely eliminate them. Every once in a while the music skipped and it helped to readjust the vinyl. It didn't happen too often, but I would like to point out it did occur. Bluetooth audio was very easy to set up and was recognized by my AV receiver within a few seconds. Audio was clear and brought a nostalgic feeling as we moved the turntable head to a different section of the vinyl to play specific songs. The replay feature is a huge bonus and when on, replays the entire vinyl without you having to move the turntable head. It automatically moves it to the beginning of the vinyl and plays the vinyl all over again. Another thing I liked about the turntable was that it has an auto shut off feature if the music is paused or nothing is being played. I noticed it turned off after about 15 minutes or so. Now for the cons. A cool thing about the turntable was that when you press the play button, the turntable head automatically moves to be in the correct position to play music from the vinyl. The problem with the unit I had was that it would get stuck at one point and would fail to continue. I would have to manually move the head to the correct position to continue. I believe this was a problem with my unit specifically, but wanted to point it out as a known, possible issue. Overall, I'm very happy with the Victrola automatic turntable and found it very easy to use. The replay button was very useful and if you're looking for this specific feature in a vinyl player, I would definitely recommend it. The only thing missing is a remote and a 30 second skip feature!

Turntables are starting to make a comeback and having grown up in a household with hundreds of records I’m all for it. The Victrola is a stunning looking turntable which is easy to setup and use, everything comes assembled (dust cover, stylus, tone arm) the only thing I needed to do make sure to put the belt in the correct place. The Victrola has a matte black finish with four total control buttons and 3 switches to help control speed, record size and switchable preamp setting. As the name states this is an automatic turntable so you don’t need to move the tone arm as its done with the simple push of a button, this also makes sure you don’t damage the stylus. Victrola has made everything simple even the Bluetooth function, after you power it on all you do push the power button and make sure your speaker is in pairing mode and the Victrola will connect to it automatically. Another notable feature is even after you turn the turntable off it will go back to your last setting (Bluetooth or hardwired) this feature even works after you unplug it from the wall which I was very surprised by. There is a built in preamp so you can plug in active bookshelf speakers. The Victrola Automatic does a great job with music, the sound is crisp and clean and the vocals sound exceptional. The stylus used is great and there was no jumping/skips on any of the records I played (size 7” or 12”) and the sound came out clear while on Bluetooth or hardwired. Me and my dad are enjoying playing all his old records from back in the 60’s. Overall, this is a great turntable that has a great look which fits anywhere with its minimalist look and easy to use. The automatic Bluetooth connection and the repeat feature are nice modern touches which makes this a must have if you’re in the market.

I have records that I not listened to in years and if you loved music then you know that vinyl is one of the best ways to hear the true sound of music. The way that a record reproduces the actual sound and voice when listening to music is second to none. So, when I came across the Victrola Automatic Turntable, I could not pass it up. This unit plays both thirty-three and a half and forty fives. I took the chance on this turntable and I’m not looking back. Setup for the Victrola couldn’t be any more straight forward. I downloaded the Victrola app to my cell phone. Plugged it and when the light started flashing, I was able to seamlessly connect it via the app to my cell phone. Once connected, I linked it to my preferred blue tooth speaker. At this point I was ready finally listen to some of my long-lost albums. With the Victrola powered on I reached in the collection of vinyl and pulled out one of my favorites from the 70’s popped it on the turntable and that’s where the magic began. With a push of a button, this machine took over all of the action. It automatically put the needle at the beginning of the record and took over from there. Watching the action of the Victrola brought back so many memories of my younger years. The light crackle you hear as the needle moves along the record and the initial start of that very first note gave me chills. I haven’t hard music sound this good and clear in years. Now, having a good set of blue tooth speakers, you can really hear the music. There are different ways to connect to a speaker system such pre amp or blue too. My choice is blue tooth. As for the sound quality, voice sounds crystal clear and the music playing through a good set of speakers allow you to hear every single instrument. If you love music then you can never go wrong with vinyl and with the Victrola it really reproduces sound well. The sound that you hear I literally amazing music to your ears. In my opinion, if you are a music lover and have a nice collection of records, then the Victrola Automatic Turntable is for you. This record player is very affordable and will reproduce amazing sounds. Don’t take my word, just pick one up for yourself and you won’t be disappointed.

The Victrola turntable is an entry level turntable that offers Bluetooth functionality and is a great option for a beginner’s turntable. The Victrola is an automatic belt driven turntable. You can immediately tell this is an entry level turntable as everything is made out of plastic, with the exception of the platter and the arm. There are some handy features that can be useful such as the repeat button, and the play button that also acts as a pause button. The turn table can be hooked up to either a Bluetooth speaker/ headphone, or a stereo/receiver with line-in or phono. To my surprise there is no headphone input, so the only way you can use headphones is through Bluetooth. The sound quality is what you expect from a budget turntable, it’s not amazing by any means, but it works. In this case, it’s all going to depend on the speakers and/ the receiver you use. I connected this to a JBL authentic 300, I used an aux cable connected to a L/R audio adapter and plugged it into the record player. I was able to get some pretty good sound, especially with the treble and bass controls on the speaker. Next, I tried out some Bluetooth headphones to see how well they would work...To my surprise, I was able to connect them very easily with the push of the button. I used my Sony 1000XM3’s and while those headphones sound amazing with pretty much anything, the record player wasn’t the best. Without the option to adjust the EQ, the sound quality is bad, everything sounds flat and dull with almost no bass. Overall, the Victrola makes a good entry level turntable for anyone looking to get their first record player. They take out all the technical stuff and make it as easy as possible. There are some useful features like the repeat and play/pause buttons, and being able to use Bluetooth is nice feature for ease of use. I would recommend this as a beginner’s turn table.

End of day... its a Vinyl record player... If you are of a certain age, you know what that means. Vinyls have made a comeback over the last 5 years or so, and growing every day. Having purchased a re-print of Prince's Purple Rain album, just to have it... It was about time to have a player to play it. Out of the box, this took about 5 minutes to setup. Turntable onto the unit, a little stretch of one belt onto the motor, and you are ready to go. I used the bluetooth connection, and this is where it lost .25 star. I found the blind bluetooth binding challenging, maybe it was my speaker as well, but it took several attempts for the player and the speaker to pair up. And I seem to have to do it every time we turn it on. But once it is connected, it is great. As an alternative, you can use "classic" analog Red/White RCA plugs to connect to a speaker or amplifier. Usage is super simple, set your speed (supports both common speeds), and the size of record (both common sizes supported). Place your record on the turn table, and hit play. The armature will go to the start of the album, and will start to play, and sound AMAZING. You can easily lift and place the needle (Stylus) if you want to jump to a specific track. The sound is clear... the sound is rich and deep. Love it. It brings a little bit of the magic back of playing an album from start to finish. So here is where we lose just another .5 star. It is not AT ALL vibration tolerant. Yes, any record player is going to skip or not play smooth if there is too much vibration. But this one is so sensitive that even walking on the floor, or closing a drawer (not hard), caused it to skip. The last .25 lost, the unit has a very plastic and lightweight feel to it. There is not much to it. For some that may be a good thing, but for us, it just gave it a feeling of it is just another device. Not the central focus of a sound system that record players used to be. It is a nit pick, but it is how we felt about it. Since getting the player, we have pulled out the few records that my wife had at her parents home (1980's classics and soundtracks), I have been buying many re-print collector albums that are beautiful to look at. and then some newer movie soundtrack albums. As the market continues to grow, looking forward to buying more albums. And what is nice, is several vendors are then also offering instant digital versions as well, so we can use some of the modern music devices as well.

The Victrola Automatic Turntable is a great starter turntable for those starting out and venturing into vinyl records like myself but I also think this is a great turntable for avid vinyl collectors as well due to the updated features. In the box it includes a pair of RCA cables, power cord/plug and felt slip pad. I like that it included the RCA cables because that’s one less thing I have to buy and these days most manufacturers don’t provide cables. Features of the Victrola Automatic Turntable include fully automatic playback and a continuos repeat function. Which I really like as your vinyl record will automatically repeat playback when the record has ended. Another updated feature is Bluetooth where you can either pair the turntable to Bluetooth speakers or a pair of headphones which really adds to convenience. The unit also has a removable dust cover if you prefer to leave the cover off it is a nice option. This unit is also has a belt drive motor which is silent in my opinion and has an aluminum platter. As far as the housing it is all plastic and honestly does look kind of cheap as the lettering and symbols on the buttons are printed on and seem like they will wear out with use. That is pretty much the only complaint I have about this turntable which is minor as it works and sound great. Another great feature is the turntable come with an Audio Technica AT-3600L moving magnet cartridge!

I've been looking to have a turntable for a while now. This Victrola Automatic Turntable is so cool! Now I just need to start a larger vinyl collection! This has bluetooth capability, which I used to pair with a couple of bluetooth speakers I had. Set up was pretty easy - the first time I tried to pair them they wouldn't connect, but then I unplugged the turntable and the speakers and tried again and they connected immediately. Without the speakers the sound is pretty quiet, but you can connect them with an RCA cable, which is included or wirelessly through bluetooth. Nothing beats the sound of a record playing, and this turntable makes it so easy to listen to. When it's finished with playing the vinyl record it will automatically move the needle back to its home and turn itself off. Victrola has been around for a while, and makes a solid piece of equipment. I'm happy with the performance of this turntable and look forward to listening to more vinyl records on it. If you’re in the market for one that is easy to operate this is a good choice.

Wow! I wouldn't say that I am a music aficionado but I had a desire for vinyl again. I didn't want anything too high end and I can say this fit the bill. I am very heavy handed so I have to be careful when putting the needle down to play. I like the repeat function and most especially how it connects to my sound bar for maximum enjoyment. This sounds like a commercial, but its little ol me. I dig it.

This is a great quality Bluetooth turntable. I bought it to replace a Denon turntable I had that died. This one was easy to install and set up, works effortlessly with my hardwired speakers and receiver. I bought another one for a family member and they use it with a Bluetooth speaker. Great sound quality. Definitely worth it for the sale price.

Great purchase! The turntable is easy to use and the sound is great when paired with my blue tooth speaker...love the old school record player sound.

Bought it for my girlfriend's birthday, it sounds good, runs well, bluetooth capabilities was a bonus, odd price for something like this though.

I like that it is fully automatic and will play records repeatedly, and to start playing a record just press a button. This is a good quality player. Would recommend to a friend.

I bought this turntable for my 22 year old daughter for Christmas. She previously had an Audio-Technica, but after about five years it just stopped working. I saw this Victrola on sale and got it for her. After she opened it on Christmas morning, I quickly set it up for her with a pair of Klipsch speakers she already had and it worked beautifully. It was very easy to set up. She could've done it herself. I recommend this turntable for teens or young adults who don't really need an expensive setup.

Really crisp sound. I was pleasantly surprised. Play button feature is so easy to navigate and a nice bonus.

I bought this because I had bought another brand for my wife's Christmas gift that failed to operate properly. The Bluetooth signal on the returned turntable was broken up badly on my Panasonic Stereo. I then purchased this Victrola that was less expensive, brought it home and it immediately played flawlessly through my Panasonic Stereo via Bluetooth. It made my wife happy because of the ease of operation and it sounds great! I highly recommend Victrola.
