Ok, this is actually a pretty decent little unit for the money. I was seriously contemplating returning it because it sounded like it was skipping A LOT and/or the audio was cutting out (especially on quiet passages). I read through the reviews and saw that many people were complaining about the same thing, and when they contacted the company they were told that they should tape a light weight on top of the needle arm, like a penny (this was a common trick back when I was younger - 60's-70's when you didn't have an adjustment to increase the needle pressure). Many people said that it didn't work though. I have a professional audio background, and I felt like what I was hearing was maybe a cheap electronic circuit that was made to keep the small internal speakers from being overloaded and blowing them out - some kind of a dynamics controller like a compressor/limiter/gate device. So today I hooked up the external outputs on the back of the turntable enclosure to our entertainment system and it's speakers, and just turned down the volume knob on the turntable itself. WOW!! It works great now!!! I played about 6 or 7 albums - No skipping or volume dipping (except on the beginning of one of my old mid 70's records that was a little warped and I could actually see some gunk on it) and it sounds quite good (especially for what it is). So that's the deal - some sort of wonky electronics between the turntable and it's internal speakers. Not really very listenable without some external speaker system, but pretty decent otherwise. First time in decades that I've heard some of these albums on a turntable. I'll be keeping it.

Not sure if I received a new one, but it works fine.
The product box was really damaged, and there was a fair amount of debris within the plastic wrap, so I was worried I was getting a used one. This would not have been acceptable as a gift. The player itself seems to be fine, though. It has a decent sound on it's own (I mean without Bluetooth speakers in use) and the color is true to what's advertised (Smokey Blue). All in all, I'm happy with it.

I bought this in 2020 and I lost track of it but then just found it while moving and it won’t turn on :( it’s brand new, I used it once. it’s beautiful though. I’ve tried all the trouble shooting.
