It's not Christmas without a Vinyl Eyezz turntable recommendations video!!! 😃

[@garyglenn3654]

As always, great job! I do not need a turntable but I have been throwing out hints to the family for albums for Christmas! I think its working. Happy Holidays.

[@balkaranmatharu1747]

I've had the RT85 since you've recommended it years ago and I'm so fricken happy I went with that player out of anything else. I got a lot of friends with a lot of the others (including those you've mentioned), and they all have some kind of complaint. 2 years running with the RT85 and I have yet to find a complaint about it. Spectacular turntable, I recommend this one to everyone.

[@johnmalone8790]

Brought a cheap Pro-Ject turntable last Christmas. Didn't want to waste money on a 5 minute wonder ... Will be purchasing a linn lp12 this weekend (ordering it at least)... Turns out I absolutely love Vinyl ❤ Great video with some great recommendations 👍

[@TheTrueHasenfeffer]

Good to see Fluance on here. I picked up the RT85 when it came out. I love it.

[@user-ec5ke8dn2u]

Another great VinylEyezz video!

[@markvandenberg4606]

Great list as always! I got me a Music Hall MMF Turntable Lab Edition with Ortofon 2M Blue upgrade on sale for $349. I can certainly recommend that unit. The cartridge alone goes for over half the purchase price. I’ve been digitizing some vinyl and it’s incredible how good my old records sound.

[@spudfester]

Just recently picked up an Audio-Technica LP120XBT and upgraded the cartridge to the VM540ML. Love it so much that I have been buying records non stop for weeks Just sounds amazing.

[@Animusapertus]

Picked up the RT-82 the other day and i love it! Plenty of upgrade potential and was very easy to setup for a beginner.

[@31cify]

You see guys, the LP60X always makes it to Jarrett's top 5 turntables for any Christmas, and it's for good reason. I've had the bluetooth version for nearly 3 years now, and just a couple of months ago replaced the conical stylus with LP Gear's elliptical. Nothing wrong with the conical, it tracks well and it sounds good but I tell you, the elliptical gets deeper into the grooves with it's sharper point and extracts more details from a record. I also find the bass and the midrange to be more present with the elliptical almost to a point where you feel you're listening to a higher end turntable. This upgrade of stylus really does fulfill the promise of the LP60X.

[@kylahn.7224]

I getting a audio techna lp60x for Christmas and I'm super excited

[@sangminwoo3646]

song of the day: The Last Ovation by Joe hertler & The Rainbow Seekers. Thank you so much for these videos! I started collecting vinyl this summer, and they really helped!

[@Steambull1]

From this price class of AT, I'd say consider the LP3 as well. It's also fully automatic, but unlike the 60X, it allows you to change the cartridge and stylus.

[@47LG]

just picked up a RT84 im so excited to get it in

[@taiya2859]

Thank you for the great information.

[@markcovington8159]

Hey Jared. A very special Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family. I hope it becomes very special for you all.😀

[@theseob]

Bought a project essential III last year with build in speedbox. Love that player. I started with a saba psp 900 that i bought second hand in 2019. A nice direct drive turntable, but it has issues staying on the correct speed. A few weeks ago i bought a philips linear turntable because that integrates into my stereo system.

[@psychedelicpunkster6840]

Wow all these beautiful Turntables ! One thing you forgot to mention is the Prices for each individual TT That would help out the beginner decide what works best for them

[@TechNetworkUK]

I ordered the Audio-Technica ATLP120XUSB for Christmas

[@SuomiFinland78]

I love Technics and the new SL 1200 GR 2 is great. More expensive of those in the video, but also better.

[@aussierob7177]

Hi mate . A few years ago i purchased a Pro-Ject perspex magnetic suspension Turntable. After listening for a few years, i decide to replace the tonearm which came with the turntable. I purchased a Hadcock unipivot tonearm The result was like and night . I could buy any cartridge to go with the turntable. I am currently using a Goldring cartridge.

[@bobbarksofficial4335]

Yay!

[@TWOTALL4UFOOL]

My wife and I are looking into getting a record player for Christmas. We're just beginners but we are eyeing the Audio Technica LP60X. Song of the day suggestion. Dr. Dre- Let Me Ride.

[@glasgowjohn7831]

you can't get a U-Turn Orbit in the UK and any pro-ject players are either sold out or too expensive so i got myself an RT-82 in white and i love it

[@crunchyfrog555]

You REALLY REALLY should add the Rega Planar 1 to that list, perhaps right at the top. There's a reason this turntable has won awards for decades - because it's peerless to a large degree. I'm lucky in that I have a high end stereo of sorts and I wanted a cheaper turntable just to play old records I used to DJ with. I bought a Rega Planar and it's been so good I bought another. And that brings me onto the second major reason why it should top this list - it's the same base model that the majority of the pricier Planar models are based on, and you can upgrade it. Which is exactly what I did to my second one. Bit by bit I bought a brace plate, a new platter, bearing and so on. The fact that you can get in on this for about £280 and even if you don't choose to upgrade it, it's a better turntable than anything else at the price, you can't do better. I would also add that ProJect do make some good sounding stuff, but their build quality is often questionable. I've had two in the past and both of them suffered a lot of failures - speed circuitry, motor, tonearm, power supply. So I'd caution that into the equation too.

[@bobmalocca8534]

💯

[@andreshermosilla864]

i love rega. P1 fisrt then P3. Catridge talk is another business but Rega are awesome.

[@crunchyfrog555]

@@andreshermosilla864 With the cartridge for entry level, I guess the included Rega (which is really an Audio Fidelity) is OKish. I immediately swapped mine out for an older Ortofon Tango (moving voil) cartridge I had spare - much improved. I'd defo recommend that as one of the first changes.

[@andreshermosilla864]

@@crunchyfrog555 yeah the exact is good but I switch to audio technica vm750sh. Great performance

[@pwn3426]

yeah dude the planar 1 is $600 usd....

[@alexshopov6802]

The decision to go to the world of vinyl was one of the best decisions I made this year,it’s so satisfying I love the whole process and can’t wait to upgrade with some speakers and eventually another player.Unfortunately my wallet is not very pleased with this decision and I’ve never been more addicted of spending money on something.

[@jimsregaturntableshifijukebox]

Careful, you are popping your head into the vinyl rabbit hole, feel free to follow me down it! 😉

[@x7nick7x48]

During this black friday I bought the teac tn-3b-se as my first record player for 200€. I understood that it is comparable to Audio Technica lp 120x. What do you think about teac?

[@tommy_patrick]

Hi all! First, to Jarrett thank you for all of this information! I am new to record collecting and am trying to learn as much as I can about TTs before buying one. Second, to everyone, I had a question about a few different options for TTs. I am currently between the Audio Technica LP60x, Audio Technica LP3, and the Fluance RT81+ as I am a beginner and am not looking for something to completely break the bank. I understand most of the differences in these I would say but was wondering what you would suggest if you were to buy one starting from scratch.

[@letsgococo288]

Fun fact, turn tables in 1977 came standard automatic. And you didn’t need to be wealthy to own one. These were common place.

[@Temi0112]

Nice video, I've been wanting to get the RT81+ for Christmas for a while now, what's your advice on accessories and speakers to get with it.

[@pwn3426]

if you have or plan to get a phono pre-amp id get the 82 instead. Better cartridge and a better motor.

[@anunusualironiccircumstanc2108]

I went with the Rega P2 turntable.

[@dzidzabidza789]

Thank you.

[@pizzawithchuchujelly5475]

sadly i already got my gift early but my birthday is coming up too so that’ll be another way i could get one!

[@cosmicsin8292]

Fluance RT85 LOOKS Great but a lil outside my price range at $600CAD so I think I’m going to go with the 82 and then upgrade the platter/ cartridge later!!

[@pwn3426]

brilliant choice i have the 82 and love it. Upgraded the om10 to the om20 stylus and it was a pretty high upgrade.

[@davidsutter1846]

I am not seeing the LP60X available on Amazon or the manufacturer's site. It is instead recommending the LP60XBT. Is this recommended?

[@oldmanjimh3165]

Just watched your cereal box record video from 5 years ago. I have a Toucan Sam Kellogg's record that the transparent layer is starting to separate from the cardboard. Do you know what adhesive was used and are they repairable?

[@GordonHorneOfficial]

Hey Jarrett, i have a unique problem and would love your advice. I upgraded to a Rega Planar 3 in the UK, a year and a half ago, and by chance ive found myself living in the US with my partner. I shipped my rega thinking i just needed to get a us wallwart, which i did, but now my turntable spins too fast. Any idea what the issue could be? My partner just got me the ATLP120USB in the target sale as an early Christmas present, which ill use as a backup deck meantime, but would love to know if you have any ideas? :)

[@SeLfish1208]

Could be because of the different voltage between UK and US?

contact rega?

[@alexcrisrafa]

Hello! I’m new to the world of turntables and vinyl and have many questions. One in particular has been puzzling me: Is it possible to connect a preamp directly to powered speakers without using a receiver? I’m curious if this setup makes sense and would appreciate any insights. Thanks 🙏🏻

[@Daniel-79]

Yes, you should be able to connect a preamp to powered speakers. An integrated receiver consists (usually) of a preamp/amplifier/tuner/multiple line level inputs and phono input. A preamp by itself just regulates the line level input to an output that can be fed to an amplifier or powered speakers

Would a sound burger be a good fun turn table to get as a gift? I've been worried about other things you've said in other videos that might apply to the sound burger, such as an overbite and the whole portability thing. Just wanted some advice if anyone could help

[@7JANEWAY]

A Sound Burger will do the trick in playing records. But it’s also a good example of you get what you pay for. As long as you have the attitude that this is not a serious record player, it’s OK to get you started. But I have to agree with Jarrett and others that it would be better if you saved up for an Audio Technica LP 60X if you want to really experience vinyl. So it just comes down to why you’re buying it in the first place!!! Hope this helps!!!

[@dman38]

I've never had a pre-amp for a turntable. Just plug into the turntable jacks on the receiver.

[@pwn3426]

then your receiver obliously has built in phone or the table you use does. Higher end tables do not have built in phono preamps....

[@johnlong4923]

The fact the manufacturers consider the electric cord a f$%&@£¥ accessory is ridiculous and makes them undeserving of you $$$$

[@stevenj2380]

Really could say the U Turn basic is not really 2 - speed. Yes, play 45s ok. BUT it is one speed motor / pulley, One must move the belt to the large diameter portion. Also, when done with 45, it is wise to more belt back, so that it does not keep stretched and to sag later. Unless you would always want to play 45s! There are some more expensive - high end TT which also have this sort-of unfortunate feature. Note: Carbon EVO has internal electronic speed change, but 78s play with moving the belt. And one should used a 'special' stylus, too. for 78s/

[@ChrisPBacon2]

Man, I really want to collect vinyl, but it's expensive buying a good turntable, all the parts that are needed, and the vinyl themselves. Since I love rock, many of the albums are 2-LP albums, which cost around $40, while a 2-CD album costs $20. Can anyone tell me, is vinyl worth the money? I have a Victrola which just sucks in sound quality, so I don't really know.

[@donaldsell8432]

Never buy a belt driven turntable! Belts tend to get sticky if you don’t use it consistently. I have a Technics SL-D1 direct drive turntable that I bought for $10 at a yard sale 20 years ago with speakers… The best $10 I ever spent!!

[@pnichols6500]

You do realize most of the best and expensive turntables are belt driven? Direct drive is fantastic, but once you get out of the cheap turntables, belts are great (my replacement belts cost what some of these cheap cartridges cost).

[@ejbeekeeper4360]

I just picked up a Dual 1239A from 1978 with a belt that haven't been used for atleast 15 years. Works just fine!

[@oldmanjimh3165]

Only one did 78 rpm. With vinyl making a come back, why aren't more quality turntables including 78?

[@7JANEWAY]

Because almost all (if not all) modern records spin at 33 1/3 or 45 RPM, that’s why. Seeing a modern record that spins at 78 RPM is extremely rare. Many people who listen to 78s either found them in their grandparents’ basements or at the thrift store (Goodwill, etc.). But these people are in the extreme minority. Plus you have to get a different stylus to play these old records because they have a different type of grooves on them from the grooves that modern records have. To use a modern conical or elliptical stylus on them would sound bad and could damage both the stylus and record. Hope this helps!!!

[@TBNTX]

The Pro-Ject EVO is nice, but if someone wants to play 78 RPM records, a different cartridge/stylus would be necessary. Trust me. I found out the hard way. I presently own the Fluance RT-85. I've had it for several years. Mine is equipped with an Ortofon Blue cartridge, and I'm very happy. But remember to replace the stylus. It's important to get the best sound.
