Victrola Eastwood

I bought a Victrola suitcase about a week ago, the sound was terrible (even after replacing the cartridge) and upgraded to a Victrola Eastwood two days later. It was a big improvement but just today I ended up exchanging that for a AT-LP60XBT and it’s definitely worth the extra money. I believe it’s around $200-$220 but I bought one today from Bestbuy for $180 in the store (early Black Friday sale).

Nothing special. I ask, why couldn’t they have made it so slightly larger so the record wouldn’t hang over the side. I find that annoying. I rarely use it.

They won't destroy your records -- that's a debunked myth -- but they won't deliver anywhere near the sound quality vinyl is capable of. And the Victrola Eastwood is better than the typical cheap record players because it comes with an Audio-Technica AT3600L magnetic cartridge with a diamond stylus, instead of the red ceramic cartridge and sapphire or ruby stylus, which most others come with.

Doesn’t connect to Bluetooth speakers as well as I thought it would... but the sound quality is better than the other vitrola devices

But probably the only halfway-decent record player under $100 with built-in speakers is the Victrola Eastwood, which has an Audio-Technica AT3600L magnetic cartridge:

While my main turntable is a vintage Philips 212 with an Ortofon 2m Red cartridge, I was in the process of moving and had yet to set up my stereo and wanted to hear some music in the background. This unit is proof that the cartridge is responsible for most of the fidelity you get from your LPs. The ...

Very nice turntable. Looks fantastic, has lots of nice features like a switch to lower and raise the needle arm to eliminate scratching. The internal speakers have a nice, clean sound but they don't have a huge sound. I've found that connecting to external speakers through the bluetooth is a bit tri...

This is my third try at a decent record player for my daughter. The box type had absolutely horrible sound. Player number 2 did not work at all. This was does the trick. If you played vinyl on your old stereo system and are expecting the same sound quality, you will not find it in any of these playe...

Getting into vinyl again but didn’t want to spend a ton. Pros: sounds better thank you would think with the built in speakers, smooth operation- no skips. Seems pretty well built for the price point. Cons: the cover cannot be closed while playing, has a few flaws in the cheap plastic, and has barely...

The unit and its features are good for the asking price. Right out the box the unit was ready to go after simply plugging in the power adapter to the unit and the outlet. The speakers are nice and loud. I did like the bluetooth feature that it comes with. I have this unit as the main music player fo...
