Bluetooth Record Player with Stereo Speakers, Turntable for Vinyl to MP3 with Cassette Play, AM/FM Radio, Remote Control, USB/SD Encoding, 3.5mm Music Output Jack(Black)

I love it and I love it because it brings back memories. Now, about the player itself. Obviously, for the price, the speakers/sound is going to be terrible, there is no doubt about that. However, there is always a way around that. Get yourself an AUX cable and plug that part into the headphone jack, take the other end of the AUX cable and plug it into your Bose stereo! Fixed your problem :)I haven't used the cassette player yet, I really want to, I'm just too lazy to go out and search for any in the storage right now. I'm sure it will play great tho. Stereo works fine. Haven't tried the record thingy yet. Have read other reviews that it's quite tricky to actually do, but I'm sure I'll manage.It did take longer to get here then it said it would, but I blame that on the postal system and UPS. It is almost Christmas right now so, the mail is probably REALLY backed up.If you want a cheap record player, just to play and hear some good oldies, or even new stuff and have a nice sound bar to hook it up to, then totally grab this.

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised by this product! We purchased this to put in our son's room, as we wanted to share the records and cassette tapes we used to listen to as kids with him. My expectation was that the sound quality would be mediocre at best. However, it sounds great! There is a very noticeable lack of base tones, but for us, this is not an issue as the player will mostly voice kid material. Records and cassettes play great; no scratching or catching. The only thing that we found a little frustrating is every once in a while, you'll hear a slight hum. This is because the speaker is so close to all the other electronic mechanisms in the product that feedback is inevitable. It really is impressive how much they've included in such a reasonably-sized item. We are very please with this purchase, and have considered buying another as a gift for a family member. Highly recommended!

While the speaker system is not great if you want to play records and just listen, the recording feature does exactly what you want. My husband has many great skills and qualities, but he is not great with technical stuff. He was able to sit down, plug in a USB drive and record albums to the drive. They were old albums (78s) of his father singing way back when.A disclaimer here is that I have not done it myself, so there may be great capabilities I have not explored. When my husband played an entire album, it recorded a single mp3 to the USB drive and you cannot give it a name, so there is work to do on the other side. But it does its job and we are really pleased with it.If you want something high end that sounds great and has all the bells and whistles, you have to pay for it! This was really inexpensive and we have got more than our money's worth. We can plug in outside speakers if we want better sound, but for what we are doing, it is great.

First of all, the LCD display on the front of the unit is not visible when viewed head-on. You have to view it at about a 60 degree angle from above to see anything on it. At first I thought it was broken until I happened to stand up and caught sight of the display writing. Others have reported this problem also.But the worst problem is it is entirely flaky about recording MP3s to USB. Often pressing REC does nothing. Sometimes it appears to start recording, and then the display will read DECFULL. Other times you will think you have successfully finished recording a record side, put the thumb drive in your computer, and you find jibberish file names. When you try to delete the files, Windows complains that they are "too long". I had to format the thumb drive to get rid of the corrupt data. And note - it would corrupt previously good files that had been recorded also. So I had 2 good side recordings, and then on the 3rd recording it blasted all the recordings in the storage directory on the USB stick. So if you DO get a good recording, copy it to your hard drive right away before making more!I think it took me about 11 tries to record 4 record sides.Sound quality is about the same as a basic clock radio. It has two small speakers. I was not looking at this as a means to play records to listen to, but to digitize them. The speakers are just a convenience to listen as you are recording so you know when to start/stop recording. If you are looking for a way to play to listen, this device is not for you. There is a headphone jack that may provide a better experience; I did not try it.I really wanted this device to work. The workflow is simple - plug in USB stick and press REC and STOP at the beginning and end of the record. But unfortunately the device is too unreliable. You spend 20 minutes spinning a record thinking you are recording it only to find it was corrupted or you get a DECFULL error. I'll be returning it.

I took a chance on buying this product. I needed something that would create .mp3 from cassette tape. I have an apparently very rare set of cassettes that I love and have been wondering when they would become unusable for some reason and then lost forever. The goal for the conversion was completely self contained (needing no additional computer). This unit has both thumb drive and SD slot.Mu wife also has records (vinyl) of her mother working on air as DJ many years ago. These too are fragile and subject to loss. This is why I bought the this unit (it does cassette tapes and vinyl records).The unit is not fancy. There is no auto reverse. To minimize white space on the .mp3 file it's best to be nearby so you can eject and reverse the tape quickly. The recording seems to continue (as dead air) until the you actual press 'STOP'. This is crude but simple. I like simple. My 6 tapes copied perfectly. I plan to edit the raw recording with Audacity.The sound from the built in speaker is probably not hi-fi but is VERY CLEAR and with volume control can be too LOUD or any level you want. We have not recorded vinyl to mp3 yet. I plan to run the speaker volume on the low side to prevent disturbance of the tone arm.I did have one alarming experience. I didn't think, initially, to practice with a non sacred tape. I made an .mp3 from the first of my 6 special cassettes. This went fine but I was uncertain what started and stopped the .mp3 record etc. This resulted in a somewhat fragmented first try. It thne occurred to me I should dry run with a tape I don't care about. While experimenting this tape broke. I was horrified thinking it might have been one of my special tapes. After some investigation it occurred to me that the tape that broke was from the early 1970s and on inspection seems to be brittle. My special tapes are from the early 2000 and are in visually better shape. In the end, since I was confident I new how to get my .mp3 files I went ahead and recorded all 6 cassettes in one morning. I loaded the files on my phone and have been enjoying them immensely.I seldom take the time to review an item purchased from Amazon but this one deserves 5 stars in every way. If you like complicated and expensive electronics then this item is not for you.If you simply want to convert cassettes to .mp3 without needing an attached computer this is the equipment for you.

I wanted a cheap device that could play a large bag full of audio cassettes I bought from the local Salvation Army. This device had pretty good reviews and at a little over $50, I could get the option to listen/ record to the tapes as well as radio and LP's. So I took the plunge and I am currently listening to The Cars Greatest Hits as I am writing this review. The sound quality of the speakers in the unit is just O.K. They are nothing special but functional. However, the unit sounds excellent through my headphones. I will say the cassette functionality is very basic. You can put a cassette in and play it but there is no way to pause the tape, stop it, rewind, or fast forward. The only way to stop the tape is to eject it. This doesn't bother me as much as I wanted the machine more for the nostalgia of playing these old tapes and to experience the albums. However, I was surprised there wasn't a bit more functionality included. The tapes also will not auto flip. You must take the tape out, flip it and reinsert to hear music on the other side of the tape. So for a basic player, it will be fine for what I intend to use it for. However, if you want more out of a tape player then I would look elsewhere.

I got this to transfer music from LPs to mp3s and was frustrated at first because the "REC" button did not seem to do anything. The customer service was amazingly fast and helpful. "Vivian" at DIGITNOW had me format a USB drive in FAT32 (I used a 2GB since some customers say there's a 4GB cap on max drive size). The trick then was to copy an mp3 onto the drive and put it into the unit and cycle through sources until it came to USB. Then press play. At that point the mp3 on the USB stick started playing. With that working, I followed Vivian's advice and pressed STOP and switched to another audio source. At that point I pressed "REC" and it began recording, indicated by "REC --> USB" on the display. Afterwards I checked on my computer that the recording had indeed worked and it was great. Bear in mind that, for $70, the speaker output is little more than functional but, for the price, you get a hell of a lot of functionality (vinyl, tape, AM, FM, mp3, bluetooth) and built-in ability to make mp3s from any of those source. Pretty amazing. And with the INCREDIBLY helpful customer support this is an easy purchase to make if you need its capabilities.

Nice setup easy to use not to big sounds great small enough to take anywhere in the house or outside
