Victrola Liberty – Bluetooth Record Player – 5-in-1 Turntable with Vinyl Stream, FM Radio, USB Playback, Built-in Speakers, Use as Stand or Tabletop Player (Espresso)

Well built and plays well. I know some bash these Crosley and Victrola players, but I feel no shame for playing my records on The Liberty.Do not expect booming sound from the speaker on this player, it is not meant to be super Hi-Fi. If you desire Hi-Fi, you should look elwhere. At mid volume, I can hear The Liberty through out our small home. For more punch, I use the Bluetooth out feature to a Kliptch: The One/Two speaker.I think it is important to note the player I received was set to the correct speed concerning 45rpm (7 inch) and 33 1/3 (12 inch) record's. I do not have any 78's (10 inch) record's to test this. If you have issues with the correct speed, take it to a reputable technician or search YT for remedies.I do recommend replacing the factory needle with I diamond needle soon after purchase. I found a seller on Amazon selling replacement diamond needles relatively cheap. Be sure to use the plastic needle protector slipping it in place over the needle cartridge on the tone arm. It helps set the needle cartridge in place firmly on the tonearm.Other reviewers have more to say about the additional features provided on The Liberty, but I firmly believe the are rock solid, as long as you you have realistic expectations of what it does well. I think it does exactly what it was designed for well.These are a fun and inexpensive way to get into vinyl if you are new to it, and a good player if you have downsized, as we have.One other thing if you are new to vinyl, seek monural (mono) records for most anything released prior to 1969 and stereo thereafter. The mono records sound terrific on all turntables, including those considered "low end" by some. The stereo records still sound good, but you just won't get true stereo separation on these suitcase type players. Mono sounds good on almost anything.Peace, love, and happiness!8/8/2024 Update.This Victrola record player is rock soild, and my vinyl collection has swelled due to the addiction of playing record's and searching through stacks of albums at my two local record stores.I have used the radio feature some and it is great at pulling in some fairly distant stations. Still I wish it had a dial, instead of just seek buttons.I mainly use The Liberty to play records using the internal speaker or Bluetooth-ing out. With the right setup, using Bluetooth out is where this player shines and I use this feature almost daily, either to speakers or headphones.I may toy around with the USB feature to create some digital copies of my modest collection.In short, no regrets purchasing The Liberty. Super happy with each needle drop!

Just got it and I’m in love. The sound is not bad at all for the price point, especially if you close the lid. Connects to Bluetooth in and out so easily, and I think I’ll be listening to more radio now that I have a dedicated speaker / transmitter. It looks gorgeous. While light and not made of the most durable materials, like the Victrola made of the first part of the twentieth century — it’s still sturdy feeling and with good care should be around a while.

A great duo set! I love being blue to play various Louis Armstrong albums on Sunday mornings at home—making me a croissant away from jazzy bliss, at home! As this record layer is sturdy. Giving great functionality right from the box. also, its has a great sound quality, is finished nicely, and provides a great gift value, too. This record player is nostalgia personified!

Was really hoping this was going to be good, but it ended up being trash. I guess I should start with some of the good sides of it. Yes you do get a built in speaker with alright sound quality, BUT ONLY if you are using it the bluetooth feature. Also the radio feature and ability to play in 3 different speeds was nice. Now everything else about this turntable is bad. The sound quality from playing vinyl records is horrible. It also spins just a little too fast that gives all of the records I play a bit of a high pitch then what they are supposed to be. The overall build quality was bad too, with mine having some of the base wood skin of the turntable already peeling when I took it out of the box. And the worst part about this record player is that even though I took really good care of it, it decided to stop wanting to turn on after one week of use. This has been my first vinyl record player I have ever bought, and it has really made me not want to continue with this hobby. Records, record cleaners, speakers, and just record players that actually work are just so so expensive and I wish that this product would have been able to provide a way for me to get into this hobby without emptying my wallet. I was willing to deal with the sound quality, build quality, and the bad spin speed, but it just had to stop working out of the blue. Incredibly disappointed with this product. PLEASE SAVE UP FOR SOMETHING BETTER!

The media could not be loaded. I bought this player because I really wanted a standing one for my room. To my surprise of course not too much of a surprise but this is exactly what I wanted. I'm in love with how this player looks hasn't given me any troubles.Not only is is gorgeous but it closes so there's no dust that can get inside.Another feature which I didn't know about until it came in is that it's Bluetooth!Yes it's has Bluetooth in and out so you can connect your phone and play from the speakerOr connect your headphones and listen to you record in your headphones.Just buy this is what I'm getting at you won't regret it.
