Review on 🎡 Black Victrola VTA-65-BLK: All-in-One Bluetooth Record Player with Built-In Speakers & 3-Speed Turntable by Corey Randolph

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Audio Explanation

This turntable has a built in preamp, for those who don't know what that means, this means the turntable's speakers must be powered by an amplifier. The problem is that the speakers and amplifier on board are of very poor quality, but more importantly they lack bass. Small loudspeakers of this size would not need a bass amplifier anyway. The problem is, there's no getting around it! I'm trying to play it on my nice sound system which has its own amplifier to allow for low frequencies. However, since I can't bypass the turntable's internal power supply, I end up having two power supplies at the same time. The result is distorted sounds. If I try to bypass the power supply to my receiver (my top notch sound system) I end up with a crappy Victrola power supply that has no bass for the turntable. Trying to find out is very difficult.
