Victrola Eastwood Dual Bluetooth Turntable – 3-Speed Vinyl Record Player with Built-in Speakers, Audio Technica Cartridge & RCA/Headphones Output, Black (VTA-72)

Product Information

The controls are made up of silver buttons and knobs, and the whole thing looks both contemporary and classic. The wired headphones were great, but I was never able to get the internal speakers to completely shut off which affected the overall sound quality and experience. On first appearance, it doesn’t seem like there’s enough room to close the dust cover and still play records. Instead of leaving a wide-open turntable susceptible to amassing unwanted dirt and dust and grime, they added a crystal-clear yet removable dust cover to keep any and all records protected as they sit upon the turntable. With a nice minimalist design and in-built speakers, it marries modern convenience with classic style.

Connecting from the turntable to an exterior speaker over Bluetooth is a little more unpredictable, and we had trouble getting the sound to a speaker or our headphones. You can also connect via RCA cable and plug your headphones into the 3mm jack for private listening.And the surprisingly detailed sound reminded me of the first turntable that I owned – an all-in-one mono record player. It’s also good to know that when I do need to replace the stylus after playing it so much, it’s a pretty cheap and simple fix. A budget offering that will mostly suit those with small spaces who want to dive into the world of vinyl, the Victrola Eastwood 3-Speed Bluetooth Turntable keeps a classic feel with all the added functionality you could want. The solid and attractive design and ease of use are both fantastic, and so are the connection options, so we weren't expecting a blockbuster sound. Like I said, the audio pumping out of the turntable while playing records is sufficiently loud enough.

The Eastwood Signature – Victrola

In her spare time, she can be found tinkering with bulbs, soundbars, and video doorbells in an effort to automate every part of her small home. Overall, I’m really having a blast listening to old records (and some new ones) and the wonderful feeling of nostalgia that this delightful turntable brings. I played all of the albums through the Eastwood’s internal speakers, wired headphones, RCA out ports, and through two different sets of Bluetooth headphones. Able to be used in a matter of minutes after unpacking (instead of requiring an hour of setting up and weighting all of the individual components) and sitting comfortably on the average coffee table, it's ideal for those who are just taking their first tentative steps into the vinyl revival.Nostalgia lovers – if you appreciate the feeling of placing a record on your record player and hearing the audio crackle before the music begins, you’ll absolutely flip out and fall in love with this quaint piece of technological history. Combine this with a headphone jack for privacy and Bluetooth Speaker connectivity, and you’ll have one heckuva listening experience on your hands! The only big downside is that this means it's not as useful as a standalone Bluetooth speaker and is best used as a vinyl player.

It’s a boom time for turntable manufacturers and I’ve been having fun testing this entry level Eastwood model from Victrola.An external sound system would absolutely help to enhance the experience, but for those short on space, the in-built speakers are good enough.
