Victrola Journey - Bluetooth Suitcase Record Player - Rose Gold

ORIGINAL REVIEW (12-15-23): I wanted to casually get into collecting vinyl records, especially to play for family around Christmastime. I had a friend who recommended me one of these, and against my better judgement, I sought out other opinions online. It's insane how the vocal record vinyl community online is so hostile to these things. There's (disproven) claims about how it'll damage the records you play, claims that they're poorly built (no issues here), and lots of claims about the sound quality being tinny (again, not true). This thing (I got the red one) looks really nice and fits perfectly on a stand I built. The records play perfectly, the sound quality is really good considering the price. Maybe I have weird ears or something but I'm not hearing any tinny audio. I'm really glad I went with this purchase; it's gonna make Christmas this year feel really cozy! Don't listen to the gatekeepy pompous guys telling you how dangerous and bad these things are for your records. The whole "they'll damage your records!" thing is a disproven lie. Just go for it. You won't be disappointed! EDIT (9-22-24): Figured I'd do a little update here. There's been no issues with this player after nearly a year of daily use. Only thing I did was swap the needle out with a diamond tipped one, which was dirt cheap and super easy to do. It was the center of attention for Christmas last year, and will provide cozy Christmas vibes again during this upcoming one. Once again, definitely worth the price! EDIT: (12-24-25) Quick update 'cause why not? Player is STILL working perfectly. Just used it again today for Christmas, and it's just as good as when I first bought it. It gets used year round too, so it's not like it only gets used once a year or anything like that. My family loves it; it's become an incredibly important part of our Christmas Eve get together, hearing the warm Christmastime tunes from it. Still incredibly happy with the purchase, and I still recommend it!

So nostalgic (80s chick here) Works awesome!!! Sound is great. I’m reliving my youth lol Highly recommend this vintage looking (red) record player… Elderly parents came over and check out the video.

So, as a young boy and then teenager, this type of record player was the go-to device everyone had. When I plugged this one in, at first, I was a little disappointed in the sound. But after trying a few other 45's, it seemed better. I had forgotten that 45 pressings can vary from label to label when it comes to sound. I then tried a 33 size and the sound was even better. Don't expect great quality sound, but DO expect ease of use and a quality built product. It's handy to just pull out and put on something you haven't heard for years. I did so, and the record jolted me back 65 years to the last time I heard the song! And it was great to hear it again. Note, this was the SECOND one I tried. The first one was dead on arrival and I have to send it back. So glad this second one worked well. Very well-priced, decent product; just not deluxe sound or bass.

The player itself is great and I love it so much. The onboard speakers aren’t super bass-y, but I think that’s part of the charm. This issue I do have is the box itself was torn up, inside of the Amazon box, so it didn’t happen during shipping.

Fast, easy, quick setup! Colorful cases! Great sound! Fantastic gift idea for someone with records and hasn't bothered buying a needling in 25 years. Some prior knowledge would be good, but the manual does a pretty good job how to get started. The little speakers work great, but the record player sounds even better on a 400-watt system!

Love the color is gorgeous and I love the sound of the music in my opinion it gets loud and easy directions

Met our needs...

It works fine. Definitely cheaply made if you open it up. For some reason even though you switch it it to RCA or headphones it still plays music out the built-in speakers. Made me keep thinking something was wrong with connection or the player. Randomly stopped turning on after 3 years. And I barely used it much during that time.

Works extremely well, easy to use, loud speakers, aka, perfection

Es un reproductor de discos de vinilo perfecto para una persona que quiera empezar a adentrarse en el mundo de este tipo de formato físico; gracias a estos tocadiscos portátiles, los vinilos están recuperando cierto número de compradores alrededor del mundo. Si bien, las bocinas no son las mejores en cuanto a tocadiscos se refiere, son justas para el precio que tiene, además de que cuenta con unas entradas para conectar bocinas externas de mejor calidad (Que es lo que recomiendo si no piensas comprar un tocadiscos de mejor calidad a futuro). Es bueno, compacto, fácil de manejar, y muy versátil gracias a su reproductor de 3 velocidades (33, 45 y 78 RPM) el cuál incluye un adaptador para los discos más pequeños de 45 RPM, además de contar con una aguja extra de regalo en caso de que la aguja que viene con el tocadiscos se llegue a desgastar por el uso; la característica bluetooth es decente y le permite al tocadiscos funcionar como bocina para poder escuchar música desde tu teléfono o dispositivo de preferencia. Yo pedí el de color Marsala, llegó bien empaquetado y un día antes de lo estimado, si quieren animarse a comprar vinilos y no saben qué tocadiscos comprar para empezar, esta es la mejor opción calidad-precio, anímense, si te gustan los vinilos y el sentimiento vintage pero no quieres gastar mucho dinero, Victrola es para ti.

Es muy lindo!!! Precio calidad está muy bueno . Lamentablemente los vinilos son muy caros, pero como tiene la opción del bluetooth está muy bien. Es fácil de usar y de transportar. Lo recomiendo, solo tengan en cuenta que los vinilos quienes no los tengan si son caros al menos aquí en México.

Se escucha muy bonita, hasta trae otra aguja de repuesto. Viene muy bien protegida, una caja caja dentro de otra, el color esta precioso

Buen producto, me gustaría que se pudiera emparejar vía bluetooth a bocinas externas
