Although I prefer a turntable hooked up to a receiver in the old-fashioned way, I am currently living in a place where there's lack of space, so I needed a Bluetooth turntable, in this case an Audio Technica AT-120XBT with an Audio Technica VM95 cartridge with a VM95SH stylus. The major problem is random Bluetooth speakers fail to give enough volume, as they were meant for your phone in order to listen to music off Spotify, Bandcamp, YouTube, rather than a turntable. The phone does not require as much volume as your turntable for your Bluetooth speaker. So, on quieter vinyl it's really difficult to hear the music on your random Bluetooth speaker. So, it makes sense to use a Bluetooth speaker by the same manufacture as the turntable I use. This definitely has better dynamics and a louder volume so it's not so much a struggle to hear the quieter parts of the album or a quieter album. It's very easy and straightforward to connect the Bluetooth. The buttons are also very self-explanatory. The only drawback is I wished there was a volume knob instead of using the + or - buttons. There are no bass or treble adjustments, so you'll have to hear your speakers as is. Regardless it's still a great speaker to have at a reasonable price. Read more

This speaker has the cleanest sound I’ve heard from a portable speaker. And it was on sale, which I payed about $60 for! Highly recommended. Read more

We gave this to our daughter for Christmas, she had the Audio Technica record player and this is compatible with it. She was excited how easy it was to use and it gave off good sound. Read more

Update: my first review was on day one. On day two, the disconnect when paused went away completely. I don't know what changed, but since it's now working as expected, I change my rating from one star to four. I would give it five stars, but when it's idle, no audio being played, it should automatically turn off after 10 minutes, but it isn't. It stays on until the battery dies, or I turn it off manually. A minor inconvenience to be sure, but it's still a flaw. Original review: I liked this speaker up until I turned it on. Whenever I pause play, it verbally tells me that bluetooth is disconnected, then it immediately reconnects and verbally reminds me of this. I don't know if this is a bug or an undocumented feature, but it's annoying as hell, and makes me ask why it needs to disconnect when it's paused then looping disconnecting and reconnecting.

Hi, this Bluetooth speaker is much larger than I anticipated but it's so portable. It seems benign but design is so important—this speaker is just shaped like a box, that's it. No risk of knocking it over like cylindrical ones, no round edges, just a lightweight box design you can bring anywhere. It's powerful too, though the sound isn't the best ever (it's mostly bass, few mids and highs), but it does the job. With certain apps or music programs you can adjust EQ anyway so I don't so much care about that last part. It's just all about the smart design, plus ease of use. Read more
