   I spent a lot of time reading record player reviews and waiting for this model to come back in stock before deciding to purchase it. I’m glad I waited. It looks great, is rock solid, and comes with a nice Audio Technics magnetic cartridge. This model is a big upgrade over the cheaper record players with built in speakers. Initially, I was worried about the sound quality of the supplied speakers but they turned out to be quite good. The only thing I wish it had were separate bass and treble controls but even without them the record player still sounds great. The bluetooth feature works seamlessly and is an added bonus. Overall, a great product.

   The media could not be loaded.  I will say a few about my favorite product – it is incredibly stylish. I bought myself a birthday. I remember my player in my childhood – these are warm memories. and so I decided to make myself nice. Just cool! This Hi-Fi and dust cover is a huge advantage. It is very convenient that there is a speed switch. Fascinated by chic sound, depth of frequency, ease of use. A good, harmonious design, pleases the eye. All that was stated in the description and the characteristics correspond. The most important thing that pleased me was the delivery, they sent it very quickly in high-quality packaging – all the items in the box were protected separately for quality !!! I can certainly recommend this turntable.

   The media could not be loaded.  If like me you had vinyl records laying around, but no way to play them any more, you may be looking for a good record player to buy to be able to finally revive those old dusty memories again. Even better, how about a record player that can also stream your musics from your phone via Bluetooth and/or allows you to capture your disk on your computer, to be able have a copy, or to listen to your old musics on the go. Well search no more, here is the device you need !The “By One” record player may be a little over $200, and probably not for everybody’s budget, but it shows how spending a little more can reap benefits though. In terms of sound quality it really can bring out the best in your records, without those annoying scratching or humming sounds. I particularly loved that it offers some good deep but supple bass as well. It looks very lovely too with its brushed iron platter, along with the provided soft mat.If you’re interested, you can also watch my video review for a more detailed view about this turntable. But for now and in short…GOOD: – Solid builds, user-friendly features and impressive excellent sound quality for a record player- Comes ready to go with two included speakers- Nice “vintage” look on this whole set- Adjustable counterweight & anti-skating force which is often only available in high end equipment- Awesome bass- Vinyl Recording Via PC (record all your old disk to listen to them later on the go, or save a copy of them)- Can stream musics from other sources (phone, tablet…etc) through this record player’s speakers.- Built-in switchable phono line and pre-amplifier- “Play/Pause”, speaker volume and disk speed buttons are available on the device itself, simple to use and all located close to each others- Great quality Audio-Technica magnetic stylus used for the playing head- Can play 33 & 45 rpm disksNOT SO GOOD:- Counterweight adjustment can be difficult to master for some non-tech people. However, the user manual has detailed procedure though to guide you step by step.- No automatic arm retract at the end of the disk

   The media could not be loaded.  I’m not a vinyl guy, however my wife is in love with vinyl. Well was until her old turntable had issues with speed and tracking. I’ve been wanted to replace her turntable but wasn’t sure what to buy, then I saw this. Besides functioning I purchased this on looks alone. Later I found out how high quality it was. I wanted to set it up for her as a surprise. I was a bit nervous to do this. As I said I didn’t know much about them or setting them up properly. IT WAS SO EASY! I mean it was a cake walk. The amazon posting has a video that is easy to follow along. I had it set up and spinning in less than 10 minutes. My wife loves it. I now understand why she liked vinyl so much. The sound is amazing. These speakers are loud and rich. I’m starting to collect all my favorite albums on vinyl only a week later hahaha. Really it’s that good! One of the best parts of this is the Bluetooth connection. If don’t have what you want to hear on vinyl no problem. Just hit the mode button and connect your phone. This set is a mix between classic and technology. As for the digital converter cable. I tried on one of my fathers albums and it worked well. He’s probably new going to have me convert all the hw doesn’t have a digital copy of.I would absolutely buy again. I hope this was helpful.

   I haven’t owned a turntable for about 30 years. Now that everything is being reissued back in vinyl, I started hunting around for a feature packed table. This ticks every box I was looking for and then some! I wanted more than just a “basic” $40 ceramic needle table. I was looking for a belt-driven system with an adjustable tone arm, tracking weight, magnetic stylus, and ability to switch from phono-level (disable the pre-amp) to line-level (pre-amp). My Denon receiver has a very good phono amp built-in but I also use it on a newer Sony amp without a phono input in my workshop, so this was a must.This 1byOne system had all of this, plus USB out for recording, and a built-in amp and external speakers. Additionally, it has a Bluetooth receiver which lets me stream from my phone when in the workshop. All the specs on this are top rated. The AudioTechnica cartridge has fantastic reproduction. The belt driven motor is smooth and quiet. The bottom feet are grippy and adjustable to level out whatever you put it on. Everything you need to get up an running and enjoying the warmth of vinyl is in the box. Tracking weight, anti-skate weight, power, speaker, and USB cable are included; you will need to supply an RCA cable with optional ground if attaching to a receiver or amp. The instructions in the box are easy to follow if you’ve assembled a turntable before, and there is a scan card for more support options included as well.The included speakers are very good, a little bassy, but they can play at a loud volume without distortion, bottoming out, or tweeter crashing. As you can see from the photos, the separation is great, and there is an actual port tube attached to the speaker, not just a knockout or drilled hole. The rubber feet help keep the speaker from vibrating and walking off the table. They handle anything I threw at them very well, from classical, opera, classic rock, modern rock, electronic, etc.Overall, I am very impressed with the value of this system. The sound is top notch, based on a week or so I’ve had this setup. It sounds fantastic pumped through my Denon receiver and Yamaha speaker setup. I recently inherited a number of older albums from my Grandmother, and it has run the gamut from Polkas, Beethoven, Puccini, Vivaldi, Herb Alpert & Tijuana Bras, Rolling Stones, Jim Croce, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Chris Cornell, Prince, Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, and others I can’t remember off-hand. Well worth the price!

   Louis – August 22, 2020

   The 1ByOne turntable.We wanted to get a small inexpensive turntable that we wouldn’t be too scared to use around our 2 year old son. Also to get started with a compact and simple integrated system for convenience. However, knowing the all in one suitcase turntables etc are not great, we were looking for something slightly better, without going too expensive or high end.This turntable seemed the fit the bill for a reasonable price, I didn’t have high hopes for the best sound but thought it should be good enough to use. It’s integrated but the speakers are separate, which is important.I have to say after setting it all up (really very easy) and from putting the first record on, I was quite amazed at how good it sounds.Like many turntables at this level it comes with an AT3600(L) cart and stylus. While this is a budget stylus it’s actually surprisingly good. Tracking force is high at 3.5g (1 full turn and 1.5g more). I found you can run it a little lighter at 2.5-3g without any noticeable issue. The cart looks upgradable being on standard screw mounts. You can also put a better stylus on the existing cart for a minor upgrade. However the 3600L sounds very good for the price.The turntable has a belt drive motor set into the base which drives a plastic wheel, on top sits a heavy cast iron platter. On top of that, a felt slip mat. The platter itself is very sturdy and doesn’t transmit a lot of noise. I am sure the slip mat could easily be upgraded but the one it comes with seemed sufficient to start out. The motor is unlikely synchronous but at this price point that’s fine. The arm and mechanism seems decent, it comes with the hanging anti-skate, which was a key reason we got this model over others that do not support that. Make sure you install this properly. Make sure the turntable is very level and away from vibration, such as front the speakers. Take time to set the weight carefully, you can special get stylus scales for this (not expensive). I am sure this deck is much better than anything you used to be able to get at this price point.About the speakers, for such tiny boxes they have a relatively decent sound. These are not toys. Rear ported, reasonable base extension. Quite clear sound, great midrange actually, very clear. Take up almost no space. They also look nice, with the grills off too. They sound bigger than their tiny size.The only thing I changed so far was the speaker cable to something a bit more expensive. Shortly after we were given a nice vintage receiver and of course the benefit of a turntable like this with phono/line outputs and separate speakers was we were able to slot that in and run the turntable into the receiver and the speakers from it. So a 2 box system that is now quite versatile, especially with the Bluetooth (which works fine).So, overall, pretty impressed with it for the price.My last system was a project expression 3, carbon fibre arm, Ortofon 2M Black, project phono RS preamp, Arcam main amp, Audes Blues 2 speakers and high end pure silver cables. So while it doesn’t live up to the sound of that (which was amazing) to give this little unit some credit, for the price it’s pretty good!So overall I recommend it. Potentially you could budget for upgrading the speaker wire and the slip mat at some stage, even the cartridge perhaps later on. It’s still a cheap system and it is far better than these all in one units that are so popular. If you did nothing to it, just set it up probably and I doubt you could fail to enjoy it. Just get some more records and enjoy… 😊

   A Good Samaritan – September 25, 2020

   The media could not be loaded.  I wanted to upgrade from my old record player. My old one was cheaply built with plastic platter and fake wood look and sound quality was just bad. It was good for beginner, but I was ready for an upgrade as my vinyl collection has grow quite a bit. I decided to go with this one because of the iron platter and the look. I was really surprised by how good the sound quality actually is for this one. The 36 W book shelf speaker delivers record in amazing tone. And you can feel the bass in the air. Besides of the astonishing music quality, the record player was very well-built. The iron platter is heavy and sturdy. The entire unit is built with wood material which feels and looks very classy and it fits very nicely with mid-century furnitures. Last but not least, the vinyl recording and bluetooth feature also are very user-friendly. It connects very easily, so no need to worry about having hard time figuring our how to connect to it. I am very happy with my purchase and will definitely recommended this unit for anyone who’s ready for a good record player.

    The media could not be loaded.  Greetings! I hope my review of this item will be helpful to all, both sellers and potential buyers! The quick overall: This is definitely worth what you pay for!To start, the packaging it arrived in was very clean and neat. Not too much difficulty unpacking and organizing along my basement area where I planned to put it. The parts box was well-organized and even listed exactly what was inside. I was impressed with the quality packaging.Assembly was relatively easy to follow with the provided instruction booklet. I am a newbie when it comes to having to assemble a tonearm, so for me it got a little tricky and took the most time in the whole process (maybe about 45 minutes). The instructions provided a very nice layout of exactly how to do it and values to aim for when setting the counterweight. I would recommend reading it over carefully a few times and possibly research a few videos online if you need a visual aid. The counterweight itself was easy enough to put on and adjust to level it, however, when it came to assembling the anti-skate weight, this is where I ran into a small dilemma. The loop of the wire on the anti-skate weight (it feels like a very small, fine piece of fishing line) was not tied off so I had to get a flash-light, magnifying glass, and needle nose pliers to knot it off at the right notch. Once I got that done, everything else was relatively easy. One thing that had me a little baffled is that this product came with what looks like a little “key” thing that was not noted anywhere in the instructions (I included a picture). I fumbled around with it and thought that it was supposed to be used to adjust the anti-skate weight somehow, but I really have no idea. So, I stored it as an extra piece. Once fully assembled, though, the turntable itself looks very simplistic and neat, looks and feels solid, and is just really nice! It fits well in basically any setting, in my opinion. Right now, it looks beautiful on top of my media stand which houses my receiver.Now for the performance and sound. This definitely sounds quite satisfactory and much better than the last turntable I owned! I had taken the time to try most, if not all, possible output settings. My main planned setting is connecting it to my A/V receiver in 7.1 surround. With this I had 3 options from the turntable itself: Phono output, Line output, or USB. Using the Phono output, it has a lower signal and weaker volume but has a very nice full range and more balanced sound between bass and treble as it was utilizing the preamp on my receiver. From there I was able to use specific settings on my receiver to achieve whatever preset or equalization I wanted. The only drawback is that there is a small hum in my center speaker in this setting. Could be that I am just using a 14-gauge speaker wire as a ground, but it’s only noticeable if I literally have my ear right next to the speaker. Using the Line-in output, I got a clean signal with a slightly higher volume and utilizing the preamp built into the turntable. I’d have to say that the turntable preamp does a pretty nice job, but I noticed that it was very treble heavy compared to the phono level. It was still a satisfactory sound, but I preferred the fullness and balance of the phono output. The USB output utilizes my computer soundcard as essentially a Mic-in input. My computer is then output to my receiver. I’d say the sound quality is the equivalent of the Line-in except it had a slightly noticeable echo. This might be because the cartridge is picking up surrounding sounds/elements from anything near it and acting like a microphone. Overall, all outputs are very close in quality and I think it all depends on the receiver. Note that these 3 options do not utilize the volume knob on the top of the turntable whatsoever. That is solely for the final option, to hook the turntable up to the provided speakers. I’ll admit I had no real intention of ever using the speakers. However, I decided to give it a go. When I hooked these up, I was pretty amazed at the overall quality and volume of the output. It has a pretty respectable bass response as well, I think even slightly better than my receiver? It actually gets pretty loud, too, when I cranked up the dial. Needless to say, I was impressed with the sound quality. The sound is clear, it can fill up a sizeable room, and it gives me an added option of making this turntable somewhat portable within places in my house (or maybe even bring to a small party). The only thing that I ponder is that it was advertised as 36W power rating, but the speakers themselves say 18W power rating. Maybe I’m a noob, but is it just the combined power rating?Overall, I’d say this competes well with other turntables in this price range for everything it has to offer. You definitely get a high-quality sound from the 1byone that satisfies my listening pleasure! I will also say, taking some time to balance the tonearm really makes a difference. I have had virtually 0 skips on every record I’ve played on it (at the time of this writing, around 2 months of regular use and roughly close to 100 combinations of 33s and 45s), except for a few older records I own that were just scratched heavily or damaged in certain spots! Of note, the stylus cartridge they use is the Audio-Technica AT3600L, which I feel is a good-quality needle. It may help to research the specs for this stylus and also invest in a stylus scale (which are relatively inexpensive) if you want to balance the tonearm more specifically and put the least amount of wear on the stylus and your records. If you are looking to upgrade to a pleasurable listening experience or get into what may be considered “entry-level” audiophile without breaking the bank, then this is for you! I can’t speak for a pure audiophile, but I’d have to say I am very satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone in similar settings and circumstances. Hope this review helps and all of you potential buyers find this review useful. I highly recommend this product and this company! Happy buying!
