Turntable Record Player Reviews

Unless you have hundreds of dollars to spend on headphones, you’re going to have to sacrifice something. With the Sennheiser HD280PRO headphones, that sacrifice is portability. These headphones are bulky and not designed for the road. They also struggle with bass heavy tracks at higher volumes. But if you don’t listen to a lot of […]

If you want to listen to vinyl record using headphones, you need a pair that can faithfully reproduce a large frequency range. That generally means paying a higher price. But not always. While the Koss Porta Pro on-ear headphones are far from perfect, they deliver shockingly good sound quality, despite a budget price. In order […]

You get what you pay for. We all know that is generally true. But sometimes you simply don’t have the money to spend on top quality. That’s where a model like the Behringer HPM1000 headphones comes in. To call it a budget model would perhaps even be an understatement. They sell for an insanely low […]

You can’t always listen to your favorite vinyl records when you want to. Sometimes you have to keep the volume down. Unless you have a good pair of headphones. And the Audio-Technica ATH-M40x professional studio monitor headphones are just that. In fact, they are the best value available on the market. They combine excellent sound […]

The Byron Statics Briefcase Turntable With Built-In Speakers has one big selling point. An incredibly low price. Naturally, that means sacrifices had to be made, in order to keep the cost low.

Few record players I’ve reviewed in this price range are this multi-functional. The 1byone can […]

People just love that vintage look. And that definitely extends to record players. The problem with vintage models is that they lack modern features and components. That is why models like the Portable Wireless LP Belt-Drive Record Player With Built-In Stereo Speakers from Wockoder are such a hit. They look vintage on the outside, but […]

Vintage suitcase style record players are making a comeback. Originally popular in the 1950s and 1960s, they fell out of fashion, in large part due to their limitations. They were very basic and only did one thing: play records. Their speakers were weak and other components were cheap as well, but they were ultra-portable. People […]

All-in-one systems always have drawbacks. When you put a record player, a CD player, a cassette deck and a radio all into one unit, each of them obviously has less space available than they would in their own dedicated unit. They also end up being lower quality to keep the overall costs down. Is this […]

Suitcase style players were hugely popular in the 1950s and 60s, but they eventually fell out of style. They simply did not have good enough speakers to make people happy. But now several companies are making modern versions of this vintage turntable style. And one of the best is the Wockoder Portable Suitcase Bluetooth Turntable. […]
