The 1 BY ONE High Fidelity All-in-One Record Player is built for someone who wants to drop a record and hear it without assembling a separate system. Four speakers are already inside, so the usual amp and speaker pair isn't required. We'd consider it a sensible pick if your listening happens in one room and you value simplicity over expanding later.
The belt-drive design is meant to keep motor noise and vibration away from the record, and the two speeds cover the usual 33 1/3 and 45 RPM records. A magnetic AT-3600L cartridge sits at the end of the tonearm, which is a replaceable moving-magnet design rather than a fixed ceramic one. We'd skip it if you already own a turntable you like or plan to build a component system around a separate cartridge and phono stage.
How you'll connect it and what plays
There's an RCA line out on the back. That lets you feed a separate hi-fi setup, some active speakers or an amp if the built-in speakers aren't enough for the room. It also means the turntable can serve as a source later without replacing it.
Wireless input is included too, so you can send music from a phone or tablet through the same speakers when you aren't playing vinyl. There's no mention of Bluetooth output, so the wireless path is for streaming into the player, not out to a separate speaker.
Which room makes this worth it
This suits a den, bedroom or living room where a single unit can sit on a shelf or table and fill the space without a rack of components. The built-in speakers and wireless streaming make it easy to alternate between records and a digital playlist. At $184.99, it currently sits below the typical price of $197.73 over the last 90 days, and it's also the lowest price we've tracked for it.
Before ordering, check that the line output type lines up with the input on your amplifier or powered speakers, since an amp without a line input would need a different hookup. Also confirm the space you have for the footprint, and note the color is black.
Typical price over the last 90 days is $197.73, and the current $184.99 is the lowest we've seen, so the discount is modest but real.
The AT-3600L cartridge is a moving-magnet type, which is worth knowing if you ever plan to replace it.
RCA line out lets you add powered speakers or an amp, but check that your gear has a matching line input.
