Victrola - Bluetooth Stereo Turntable - Turquoise

For someone who just got into collecting vinyl but not too serious about high fidelity audio or just wants to have a fun way to hear music this is good. The speakers tend to fall apart at the high end of the volume setting and they don't grab highs and lows very well. And they aren't very loud. But it's fun to just sit in front of the thing and play some records. I was a bit disappointed because I thought you could use the Bluetooth to transmit sound to another source. But it can only be used as a Bluetooth speaker, like if you sync your phone to it and listen. But I have it near my TV sound bar and run those red and white audio cables to it and it sounds great. Or you can use an AUX cable to use any other speakers. As far as durability, I haven't a clue because this sits in the living room and I don't plan on taking it anywhere. It's pretty light and portable if you need to take it anywhere. Just be gentle with it like any other piece of electronic device. Obviously the sound isn't going to sound as rich as a CD even if you run it through better speakers. (I know, I know, it all depends on the quality of vinyl and from what sources the specific record was pressed from but overall) You lose a lot of bass. Even when I turn on Bass Mode on the sound bar, it's not good. but for the price I'm okay with it. I'm glad I bought it and I have so much fun using it. It's a good starting off point and maybe I'll invest in a better player in the future. But for now I'm good with this.

This was purchased as a Christmas gift for my daughter along with a handful of new records. First of all it had a Kohls price tag on the box. Can't figure that out. The brand new records are skipping a lot at random times right out of the package. After some research I've found that it's not common for brand new records to be skipping, if that many brand new records are skipping it could have to do with a lower quality record player that doesn't have a self adjusting arm. The speakers work but I get better sound listening to my iPhone from across the room. There is no bass. This is easily remedied by plugging an aux cord into a good stereo system but then its not much of a portable record player. Because of the sale price I paid for it, I am planning on modifying and adjusting it myself to solve the skipping issue and keeping it tethered to the stereo system.

Purchased as a xmas gift for my 16 year old and it became an immediate hit. Sound quality is crisp and clear but don't expect reverberating bass. Bluetooth feature is a very nice addition and has proven itself to be very reliable from as far away as 20-25 feet. Spare needle is included in addition to a 45 adapter. Case is very durable and well made. Perfectly accents any surroundings adding a colorful splash of bold nostalgia. If you're looking for an entry level vinyl record player I think you'll be pleased with what you get here for the money.

I loved all of the features built in to this portable turntable, especially the bluetooth and loud headphone/phono jack - which I used to route the music to my vintage Sansui amplifier circa late 1970s. I would have kept it, had it not been for the fact that my unit had a defective turntable that did not spin as flat as I would have liked. Seems like a recurring issue... I asked if the store had any in stock and found out it was an online exclusive item - more of a hassle to re-buy, so I decided to purchase a SONY in store. Very good quality, but not as fun as this Victrola and not even close to being portable. Oh well - you win some, you lose some

I just got this so I could play some of my fathers old LP records and it is so easy to use! It is nice and compact and the instructions are very simple. It works great. I haven't tried pairing it yet - I am just now testing some records, but after setting up full turntables with receivers this one is a blessing. If you are looking for an inexpensive and easy set up just to listen to LPS from time to time I would recommend this. I haven't tried the 45 adapter yet but I plan on doing so. I am extremely happy with my purchase!

This was actually a gift for my Grandson, we were all shocked at how many features this had (especially for the price) but I was surprised that the kids knew nothing about turntables, they didn't even know how to make it work with the vinyl. For once Grampa and Grandma were the experts. All the kids gathered around to learn how the gadget worked & we are not talking about little one, these guys were 17 to 22 yr olds. They had a blast with it.

I really liked this little record player, The only think that I prefer in a Record Player would be my like my Crosley 5-1 unit, plays records, cassettes, cd's, radio and blue tooth. And th Crosley is made of wood and has a little nicer speakers. But back to the Victorola, It is a great brand, it does have blue tooth. and it has 3 speeds so you can play 45's, LP's (my favorite. I would definitely recommend this as an affordable/priced right player. And it is portable which is great for kids. Comes in multiple colors. My daughter really likes her new record player.

I bought this turn table having read the reviews about it, only to find that every record I played on it would skip and some of them even sounded like there were parts of the record playing in slow motion. I inspected the turn table and saw that the platter was warped. So I returned it and got another player that looked almost identical but is another brand and it not only sounds better it also does not skip. I would pass on this turn table.
