@wowVJ You should upgrade to an Audio Technica LP60X or LP60XBT it's a better quality record player because the one you're using will ruin your records
@@lauracorbett4577what’s the difference between x and xbt? Sorry, I know nothing of record players lol
What record is this?
@@lauracorbett4577Not really, you just have to make sure to not play your vinyls too much and change the needle once in a while.
Still if you can upgrade to something better then yeah go ahead
I cant acces the link
How to torture audiophiles:
If the record works I see no problem I like how records have crackles
@DaveMiller741 not really the issue, more so how the record is poorly built with basically all plastic, the record is played at a slightly different speed, the tracking force is really wearing on the records meaning they're not going to last very long and it more than likely has a sapphire stylus which makes the record sound way worse. These mechanisms aren't horrible and can actually sound decent, but do have all of the above issues, I would recommend maybe getting a replacement stylus of a higher grade for starters.
I’m no audiophile. And I don’t think I’ll ever be convinced records can sound objectively better than a high quality digital recording, but even I can tell this thing is just TOO cheap.
@@DaveMiller741 the low quality speakers are even worse in person. The needle often damages records over time due to low quality materials used and lack of a fully supported platter beneath records adds to the issue making the needle dig worse on the outside of.the record (first few songs ware out fast). Also even on thrift shop cheap vinyls, had one stop working after a few months the electornics just all shorted out despite being plugged into a surge protector. Turned it on one final day and made a crackle pop and slight boom while light dimly died to never turn back on again😅 ymmv
@@jackgreenstalk777 you are absolutely correct. I have a Victrola record player that I have replaced the needle on. The original needle sounds SO much better and was amazing. Now that I have changed the needle to a cheap one, it sounds horrible.
as bad and cheap as it gets
How
@@Official-DB, plastic parts. Clumsy tonearm, unwanted resonances. Heavy tracking force. Cheap, poorly polished sapphire stylus. Absolute kill of joy and waste of money.
@@NiiOnLood ok
@@djkal-c yeah I’ve stopped playing my records on it as I’m waiting to get a Sony one
@@NiiOnLoodlooks like… kids turntable 😅
I'd recognize that cheap, made in China, plastic turntable mechanism anywhere! 😮👉 It's been used on almost every budget record player that was sold in the last 10-15 years. That mechanism can be purchased from Chinese suppliers for under $10 each.
it good
@@privateinvestor.
Yep! You're right! It's good at accelerating how fast your records wear out 😁👍
I started out with a cheap system, never again is all I'll say
I think many of us did the same 😅 good ones are worth it. Can't stand tinny crappy speakers built in and knowing its damaging nice vinyl that would otherwise be great for lifetimes to come
I bought the Audio Technica LP60. For the quality of the player it's worth the price. Definitely great if you are just getting into vinyl.
Why are you buying what sounds like stock mobile game music on colored vinyl?
Fr
Its the pokemon gold opening song
Why tf not
@@arkea8338 that's sad
You couldn’t have bought a worse record player
Yes, they could! Even among all these cheap record players there are some worse than others 😂
Nah there’s ones way worse than this
Nah there’s some way worse than this
If you want the most entry level player, get a lp60 or start with a base model u turn or rt82 since they can be upgraded
I recently got the AT-LP60 definitely worth it for the price.
Lol at the Pokemon record. Was not expecting that.
The fact the mechanism is pushed into the machine with the slightest press says enough to me
it does that in order to dampen vibration. haven't seen this on a more serious player but it actually isn't stupid
It’s a dampening mechanism, most turntables have it in the feet, this has it in the mechanism for cost cutting.
Nah, do yourselves a favour and save up for a decent player, these ones are horrible
Make sure you always drop the needle on while the record is spinning
no?
@@ifthesewallscouldtalktheyp7692it can poke the record
@@ifthesewallscouldtalktheyp7692yes
It doesn't matter
Everyone is talking about the player’s quality, meanwhile I’m trying to figure out what the name of the music playing is.
Journey to jhoto
pokemon gold opening theme
thank you!
Audiophiles Malding in the replies
For good reason, mind you.
@@NateCraven318 Agreed. It's misleading to people who don't know any better. I find it funny that people are mocking and scoffing at real audio enthusiast who know what they're actually talking about.
I’m an audiophile and I have both high quality and what’s considered low quality for record players, but I actually really enjoy both of them. The sound on my nice one is super accurate, clean, and hifi, while my other record player some consider to be garbage. I actually really enjoy the tone and the warmth that it brings, and the little mistakes and quirks makes it enjoyable.
@@soyboy_yt7329is it a Crosley?
If you have nice vinyl that you started collecting as a teenager then you want to play them on a decent turntable. Doesn't have to be that expensive though.
The sound reminds me of a portable record player i had in 1968
Thats a nice ass record player
The plastic under the needle squishes when you lift it😐
Yeah…maybe don’t buy it.
Idk what comments are talking about, if it can play music, its a good record player.
I totally agree. I have a similar lower end player, no damage or anything, plays just fine!
@dajosh432 there's a reason why we moved to cds and streaming
@dajosh432 the cartridge is red, the needle isn’t.
Sorry but I wouldn't allow any of my vinyl to ever get in contact with that bottom-of-the-barrel cartridge and tonearm.
Couldn’t you just buy replacement ones tho?
@@emotionaldistress No. These low-end players aren't worth the time and effort to replace the tonearm. Just waltz into your local hi-fi shop, slap down at least $400 to get a "real turntable" and good tonearm. It's pretty simple and worth the money.
Dosent cause damage fact
@@themadcoachman Yes it does cause damage. Those tone arms track at about five or more grams. My current tone arm tracks at 1.5 grams.
@@n.miller907 that's even worse!
Don't buy this record player. Cheap plastic switches. Vinyl should be on top of a full turn table. That needle is absolute junk.
Really no excuse when Audio Technica makes decent entry level turntables, like the LP60.
What is the album
I sometimes find awsome record players at my local Goodwill thrift store.
Rather buy vintages 70-80s
Is that Cruella soundtrack? That vinyl disc represented in black and white color looked familiar to me?
Yeah, this is definitely a beginners turntable. I have one myself, haven't used it much and will be upgrading to an Insignia soon. It sounds okay if you hook it to an external sound system but as others say? This is not for prolonged use.
Insignia, A Best Buy Brand? Bruh get a Technics or a Sony at least
Look at that record if you play with your eyes a little bit to it it kinda looks like a laserdisc
Replace the needle with a better one if you get it
you got a red needle tip! that would wear the disk
yes
That and probably crazy needle pressure, skip those machines. They're junk.
How many listens to an album with this would damage it permanently do you think?
vwestlife said about 50 plays I think until you notice@@Bookable_
Which are the good needles?
No please don't use that crap for your records.Throw it away!
😂
@@Josianne-Music ?
@@user-iz6vi2rk5y I agree 😬😅
@@user-iz6vi2rk5ywhats wrong with that record player?
@@hakai1014 It has a piezo needle that's made frow low quality crystals and it destroys your records.
Wow. I was actually leaning towards getting one like this cause I just wanted a way to play the few records I have once in a blue moon. But the astounding level of cheapness has made me completely reconsider. I’d rather spend $200 on a decent player I can use for decades or give to my son than $75 on a piece of literal trash that technically plays records.
IT SCRATCHED THE VINYL!?!?!
Bro why do everyone be hating so much on these things, like if your not a hardcore vinyl collector and only have like 5-10, then this is a good choice
Update: after 5 months i have upgraded to an audio technica! But i will still defend this record player since my records still play perfectly fine. Its a good record player to start out with but i would still upgrade eventually
Because it will ruin the vinyl.
@@MoltenHeliumno it wont. as long as you take care of them.
No it isn't, because for the price of most of these, you're better off buying a used Audio Technica LP60. Use your brain
@@theantiquescollector2199you are literally lying and spreading misinformation. These cheap dogshit record players with ceramic cartridges have much higher tracking forces than moving magnet record players, meaning your records will wear down faster.
They all Haters 😂 everyone is a pro when it comes to CZcams comments fr fr
The fact it works at all is probably why OP thought it’s surprisingly good lol
Reminds me of my WOCKODER record player from amazon
The infamous red ceramic cartridge
IMPOSSIBLE...!
No tracking force turntable = disaster
I’ve had this one for about 8 months now never ever had a problem with audio or my records getting scratched or anything great beginner one for the price
As soon as I saw the stylus and 78 selector it was the a hard no for me. You need a different stylus for 78 and it’s a cheap ceramic cartridge
How that work?
i can't stand these vinyl nerds saying it will warp your records because of the needle. even "good" ones will wear your records out.
It will warp and damage them having a small platter, a good player would still wear them out but after a considerably higher number of plays
@@EmberTheFoxyFoxYou can play a CD 1 million times and the millionth play will sound as good as the first play. Records should have stayed in your Great Great Granny's attic.
@@jerryspann8713 Records have a completely different sound signature and are fun to play, It's CDs that should be scrapped
@@jerryspann8713 you’ve obviously never heard vinyl at a club or show. NOTHING replicates the sound of vinyl, digital is like wearing a condom during sex.
@mygraine there is no difference between the two
U mean vinyl destroyer
need to at least swap out that ceramic cartridge for a magnetic. Lower the tracking force also.
do not buy it people
I just died watching this
nice pfp
Literally has the same cheap mechanism crosleys have and those soeakers that are built in are pathetic
This always remind me of SC-Brood War opening scene
It's good for what it is. Might be good for playing 7 inch records for fun. What I can't understand is why they are still putting 78 RPM speed on turntables in 2024?
Anything that is smaller than the record it's playing is a no go
Junk
We feel sexy & classic when we use it
If the player for your player is smaller than the record... stay away. If it has a red cartridge like this, RUN. If you see all in one, turn around. If you see built in speakers, uh oh. If you see every one of these in one player... and you bought it.... I hope you hate your vinyl
mine has everything except built in speakers so thanks for wishing me a great vinyl
Luckily my turntable has a fair price and doesn't have any of those things
@@torna2508 that's the best thing I could hear
“Run”?? 💀
I don’t blame you for reviewing it, I’d review a garbage product if I was paid to do it too. But just don’t put the needle on the record unless the record is spinning.
Udreamer if you think that's even close to a decent turntable lol
I have that same one
I bought the last one 😅
"Includes paid promotion"
I got mine from 5 below
How tf can you tell what your needle is, not from color
For the love of god do not play anything expensive on that
Sonic 3D Blast saturn
Say goodbye to your vinyl after using that player
Records should sound like ur in the studio when u listen to them and you need good speakers
Audio Technica LP60 is the cheapest new player to buy, dont buy anything worse than that
What this song
You sould never buy cheap record players it damages the record over like a 100 plays.
But you can buy a wide stylus and play old 78's on them
Do not buy I had one rly cheaply made and broke within a week
It's the same crap chinese mechanism as in all cheap turntables. And it doesn't even sound good compared to a used turntable.
I can't believe you've satisfied in this cheap plastic player. These kind of heavy weight cheap stylus get ruin records.
its alright, but the belt wears out easily
I HAVE THAT
im sorry
What are you sorry for?
RIP to your albums
@@aaronmartinez5029 yeah I’m getting a new one soon and I’m not gonna play my records until I get the new one
bro i'm now regret buying kind of this cheap record player
it ruined my record and the sound is sucks too
if u guys really want to enjoy vinyl u should buy a high end record player first
Are you serious?
I want a full platter not half a platter.
A magnetic cartridge.
I’d rather you buy a gramophone or audiotechnica
If you appreciate your vinyl records. Don’t buy It
Spend your money on something better, had this exact player and it started going like 5rpm slower in only 10 months, get an audio technica lp60x or something
Ok look there is too much comments that just hate on this short look guys a bunch people cant afford nice things,buying something that is small or bad speakers thats all they can afford, if i ever see comments that just hate on the product i dont care people cant afford good things ok just shut up
To be fair that is something people need to be aware of before getting into collecting records. The initial setup isn’t going to be cheap and that should be the first thing you put all your money on.
You're speaking crap, mate. You're quite able to get adequate second-hand turntables which boast a counterweight and an anti-skate feature for the exact same prices as the Chineese model demonstrated. I'm well aware you'd require an amp and alike speakers.
If you like muddy low fi retro sound this is the way to go its the equivalent of listening digital music over your smartphone speaker...🤮
I just dont enjoy Ceramic carthidges !
The platter, the tone arm and needle are pure trash. They sell them for probably 10 € or less online
They are called 'records' not vinyl.
Complete crap if you’re going to use the rca outputs, there’s a loud buzz through the external speakers.
Its turntable and not record player, terminology record player is wrong
Is Rega Planar 2 good?
Yes, but Audio Technica AT-LP5X is besser for the price and has a good cartridge...
@@fanclub670 it’s too late now :( But planning to change cartridge soon :) Thank you !
Oh gooooossshhhhhhhh
i got this a while ago, really nice player
It's bloody awful. That is my opinion.
Just got this one for Christmas
Edit: these are definitely bad so I got a new setup with a quartz record player now
This is The cheapest type you can get If you enjoy vinyls I would recommend getting a better one in 1-2 years because I know from personal experiense that these are crap
Enjoy your new player! Vinyl is something I love to collect and I hope you find a passion for it. If this becomes a hobby or passion consider upgrading to a Fluance or Audio Technica turntable as these are widely considered to be some of the best beginner to intermediate turntables. These will help your records last longer and stay in great shape. Happy spinning!
Dissapointing screechy sound.
Quality
C.L.A.S.S.I.C.A.L. MUSIC
Absolutely horrendous, but to be fair Vinyl itself is anyway.
Cheap junk like those Crossley suitcase players
Buy shit. Buy twice.
Please dont use expensive records...
DONT BUY THIS. THE CARDRIGE AND TRACKING FORCE WILL WEAR AND RUIN YOUR RECORDS
The ceramic cartridge tracks at 5-6 g dosent damage records
@@themadcoachman, doesn't to immediate damage but wears grooves pretty quickly, erasing higher frequencies. No precious records should be played on these.
These are crap, do not buy.
so are you telling me that my IQual vinyl record player is trash? :sob:
@@IAmCyklus.😂
Whats wrong with this one
@@hakai1014Are you aware the actual mechanism (If you're able to call it that) is a rapidly reproduced cheap chineese mechanism utilised in these turntables which costs the manufacture peanuts to make. These types of turntables boast a ceramic cartridge; feature no counterweight, anti-skate, or alike any quality turntable components. I'd adverse you from purchasing one of these crappy turntables.
Somente plástico....
My ears 😢
DO NOT BUY THIS !!! if you see the same mechanism as shown in the video on a record player, it means that its CRAP. must avoid at all cost.
YUCKKKKKK
Kobita mija hoise😂
Absolutely horrible.
