This LP&No.1 deck is aimed at someone starting a small vinyl setup, not someone upgrading one. It reads 33, 45 and 78 RPM, so 7-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch records all have a speed and a place on the platter.
Two speakers ship in the box and sit apart from the deck, which keeps motor vibration away from the platter and gives you a wider spread than a single built-in driver. The package weighs 13.84 pounds, and the deck measures 12.6 by 11.8 by 3.9 inches.
We'd consider it for a first turntable with real separation. We'd skip it if you already have a phono stage, a receiver and speakers waiting, because you'd be paying for parts you won't use.
How your music reaches the speakers
This is a belt-drive table, so a belt turns the platter rather than a direct motor drive. Three speeds are selectable, and auto stop shuts the deck down after the last track, which matters if you nod off with a record spinning.
Bluetooth here is input only. That means a phone, tablet or computer can stream into the turntable, and you'd control playback and volume from the sending device. The speakers connect over RCA, so a check before you buy is whether you plan to use the supplied pair or route the output somewhere else.
The left knob handles power and volume, with clockwise raising the level and the other direction lowering it. If you play something loud, expect to adjust on both the deck and the phone, since the two volume stages stack.
Where it fits and when to pass
The vintage wood-look body and white leather finish suit a living room, bedroom, study or cafe where the deck stays visible. Speakers this size sit on a shelf or side table, so measure your surface before ordering.
Beginners get a simple routine: set a record, pick the speed, drop the arm. The detachable top cover guards the platter and vinyl when the deck is idle.
Our advice is to buy it as an all-in-one starter set with two separated speakers rather than as a component to build on. At $109.99 it's $12.46 below the typical $122.45 paid over the last 90 days, and 3,245 ratings average 4.2 stars. The last buying check is your speaker placement: confirm you have roughly the footprint for two cabinets plus the deck before checkout.
Measure a spot for the 12.6 by 11.8 by 3.9 inch deck and two 6.5 by 11.8 by 3.5 inch speakers before you order.
Check that your phone, tablet or computer can send Bluetooth audio to the deck, since the wireless link runs in one direction.
Plan for RCA between the deck and the supplied speakers if you want the pair wired rather than placed loose.
