R517 Integrated Record Player with Built-in Speakers
Enjoy vinyl without the need for a separate amplifier or speakers. The R517 combines a belt-drive turntable with four built-in speakers, an ATN-3600L stylus, 33⅓/45 RPM playback, Bluetooth® input, RCA output, and auto-stop in a classic wood-grain cabinet. Its integrated speaker system delivers clear, balanced sound for everyday listening, while the simple setup keeps the focus where it belongs, on the music.
40 Watt HiFi Sound
Two 15W woofers and two 5W tweeters deliver fuller bass, clearer highs, and room-filling sound without extra speakers.
Bluetooth Input
Stream music wirelessly from your phone or tablet through the R517’s built-in speakers, switching effortlessly between vinyl and digital music.
33⅓ & 45 RPM
Play 7", 10", and 12" records at 33⅓ or 45 RPM for flexible playback across your vinyl collection.
Adjustable Counterweight
Fine-tune the tonearm tracking force for stable groove tracking and more consistent playback.
Pre-Installed ATN-3600L MM Stylus
The pre-installed ATN-3600L stylus delivers accurate groove tracking and detailed sound, helping you get more from every record.
S-Shape Tonearm
The S-shaped tonearm provides stable tracking across the record, helping reduce unwanted vibration for smoother, more consistent playback.
RCA Output
Connect to external speakers or an amplifier for a larger, more powerful listening setup as your system grows.
Auto Stop
Automatically stops the platter at the end of playback, helping reduce unnecessary stylus wear and protecting your records.
Three-in-One, Ready for Vinyl
The R517 combines a turntable, amplifier, and built-in speakers in one complete system. No separate amplifier, speakers, or complicated setup required, giving you a simpler way to enjoy the full vinyl experience while keeping your space clean and focused on the music.
Built-in Four Speakers
The R517 features a 40W 2-way stereo system with two 15W woofers and two 5W tweeters. Dedicated drivers handle the low and high frequencies separately, delivering fuller bass, clearer vocals and high-frequency detail, and a more balanced listening experience. With the speakers built in, there’s no need for a separate speaker system.
Advanced Hi-Fi Chipset Performance
Powered by a dedicated Hi-Fi audio chipset, the R517 delivers precise signal processing with refined tonal balance and low distortion. Every layer of your vinyl is rendered with clarity and control, preserving detail and depth for a more authentic and immersive analog listening experience.
Tuned for Balanced Sound
Four spring-mounted points suspend and isolate the turntable mechanism from the cabinet, helping reduce vibration transfer and keeping the stylus tracking the groove more steadily for cleaner, more consistent playback.
A Balanced Sound Across the Frequency Range
The R517 delivers a 50Hz–20kHz frequency response with 88±3dB high-frequency and 85±3dB low-frequency sensitivity. The wide frequency range helps reproduce bass, vocals, and high-frequency detail with a balanced, natural presentation across your records.
Bluetooth Input for More Listening Options
Connect your phone or tablet within a 33 ft range and stream music directly from Spotify, Apple Music, or other apps through the R517’s built-in speakers.
Belt-Drive System for Stable Playback
The R517 uses a belt-driven system where the motor transfers power to the platter through a flexible drive belt. This helps isolate motor vibration from the platter, supporting smoother rotation and more stable stylus tracking.
Hand-Applied Wood-Grain Finish
The hand-applied wood-grain finish gives the R517 a warm vintage character, while black speaker grilles and gold accents complete its classic audio design.
ATN3600L Moving Magnet System
The stylus traces the record groove and transfers its movement to the moving magnet cartridge, where it is converted into an electrical audio signal. The conical stylus provides stable tracking and consistent playback across your vinyl collection.
Adjustable Counterweight
The counterweight balances the tonearm and adjusts the tracking force to 3.5 ± 0.5g, helping the stylus stay securely in the groove for consistent tracking, stable playback, and reduced wear.
S-Shaped Tonearm
The S-shaped design provides a balanced tonearm geometry for stable stylus tracking, while its classic profile adds a refined, vintage character to the turntable. The result is steady groove tracking with a distinctive look inspired by traditional hi-fi design.
Easy Knob Controls
Dedicated physical knobs give you direct, tactile control over volume and playback, while reinforcing the R517’s classic hi-fi character.
Full-Size 12-Inch Platter
The full-size 12-inch platter supports 7", 10", and 12" records, providing broader record support and a stable surface for consistent rotation and playback.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. The R517 is an three-in-one record player with built-in 40W stereo speakers and a built-in phono preamp, so you can play vinyl right out of the box without a separate amplifier, receiver, or external speakers.
Its four-speaker system combines two 15W full-range speakers with two 5W tweeters, delivering a fuller and more balanced listening experience in one complete system. -
No. The R517 supports Bluetooth input only.
This means your phone or tablet can send music to the R517, but the R517 cannot send vinyl audio wirelessly to Bluetooth speakers or Bluetooth headphones.
If you want to connect external audio equipment, use the RCA output. -
When properly balanced and used according to the recommended settings, the R517 is designed for safe everyday vinyl playback.
It uses an Audio-Technica AT3600L MM cartridge, adjustable tracking force, and a belt-drive system to provide stable groove tracking.
The recommended tracking force is 3.5 ± 0.5g.
Always make sure the tonearm is properly balanced and the tracking force is correctly adjusted before playing records. -
Yes. The R517 features an automatic stop function.
When Auto Stop is enabled, the platter stops automatically after the record finishes playing, helping prevent the stylus from continuing to track the end groove unnecessarily.
The tonearm remains in position and should be manually lifted and returned to its rest after playback. -
Skipping can happen for several reasons, including incorrect tracking force, an improperly installed belt or platter, an uneven surface, a dirty or damaged record, or an incorrectly installed stylus.
1. The stylus skips repeatedly at the same spot
If the stylus always skips at the same position on a record, the record may be scratched, warped, dirty, or damaged.
Solution: Clean the record and try playing the same section again. If it still skips at exactly the same spot, test another clean record.
2. The stylus skips across different records
If skipping occurs with multiple clean records, the issue is more likely related to the turntable setup, tracking force, or stylus.
Solution: Make sure the turntable is placed on a stable, level surface. Then check that the tonearm is properly balanced and the tracking force is set within the recommended 3.5 ± 0.5g range. Also check that the stylus is properly installed and free from dust or debris.
3. The stylus skips when the record is slightly warped
A warped record can cause the tonearm to move up and down excessively, which may result in skipping.
Solution: Test another flat record. If other records play normally, the issue is likely related to the warped record rather than the turntable.
4. The stylus skips near the beginning or end of the record
If skipping mainly occurs near the outer or inner grooves, check the tracking force and stylus installation first.
Solution: Recheck the tonearm balance and make sure the tracking force is within the recommended 3.5 ± 0.5g range. Make sure the stylus is securely installed and correctly positioned.
How to Tell Whether the Problem Is the Record, Stylus, or Turntable?
The easiest way to identify the source is to test another clean record.- Only one record skips: The record is likely dirty, scratched, or warped.
- Several records skip in the same way: Check the stylus, tonearm balance, tracking force, and turntable setup.
- Skipping continues with multiple clean records after the setup is confirmed: The stylus or turntable may require further inspection.
Before troubleshooting further, always place your record player on a stable, level surface and make sure the stylus is clean and properly installed.
Bought as a Xmas gift for myself! Sound and display is lovely!!
This turntable record player works great! I love the vintage look of the black and brown - it gives off a fun retro vibe. I also love the sleek shape of the box and the S-curve arm. It looks great in my living room and manages to combine the vintage feel with a modern aesthetic. The built-in speaker makes the record player quick and easy to set up and start using. I think the speaker sounds great and I am not planning on hooking up extra speakers. The player offers 2 different speeds - 33 and 45. It also features an auto turn-off so that you don't scratch your records after it finishes.
If you have a record collection at home or want to start one, this record player is a great starting point. It is a fairly affordable option for beginners and doesn't take up a lot of space. I am very pleased with it and think it would make a great gift for anyone.
Got this for a friend for Christmas and they loved it. Now I want one for myself after listening to it. Even from two rooms away it had great sound quality and the built in speakers work just fine on their own. Didn’t hook any separate speakers to it. Recommend it!
Nice player
Looks great, sounds great. Perfect for the space. It's not SUPER loud but the sound quality is good - I live in an apartment so anything louder would probably kerfuffle my neighbors anyways. I love it so far!
Just got the package. Set up was simple. Good quality for the value. So far so good!
This product was a gift for my 15 year old daughter, and it has been amazing! The sound quality is great, and the ability to connect a cellular device has been perfect for my daughter!
Highly recommend. Really good quality, great speaker system. Has helpful instructions for setup.
IĄŻm newer to the vinyl world and my first turntable was just some cheapo suitcase one, but since my record collection is growing I figured it was time to upgrade my setup. I wanted to find something within budget, had good sound quality, built-in speakers, and was aesthetically pleasing. This turntable is a great bang for your buck!! I love the walnut finish and vintage look it has. I only really have my old one to compare to, but the sound difference is like night & day! Some of my albums that were skipping before no longer do so with this one.IĄŻve been listening to my records all day and so far IĄŻm VERY pleased.
Awesome turntable. Great sound. Solid construction. Looks great!
Great little record player! Love it!
Great customer service! Ordered a unit that had a slight speaker malfunction. They sent me a replacement unit right away
I did a lot of research !This was a birthday gift for an 18 yo who will be going to college in the fall, so I was looking for specific things - e.g., turntable stops at end. The only thing I didn’t get was an audio plug in for headphones - but we bought the necessary accessories. It was simple to set up, has great sound and my nephew is happy.
I'm so thrilled with this record player the sound is fantastic and it was easy to put it together meaning the lid and just clips right on.
It was also fast shipping.
The metal clip was very tough to get off the table inorder to get to the bet. That would be the only negative if you need to hange the bet
Over all this is a 5 star in my book
Realy love this record player. I was very skeptical about the built in speaker sound quality, but as I was very limited on space (one bookcase shelf) i decided to risk it and buy. My friend who is an audiophile was visiting and said “wow im shocked at how good it sounds”. Its not going to shake your house down, but it really does sound good for its size. The added bonus of blutooth is so nice when i dont feel like changing out records. I absolutely love this purchase!!
just buy it. its great
It’s an apartment warming gift but haven’t given it yet. I’m excited to give it tho. I will let you know later
Easy setup, easy to use (for Mom).
But… why is on/off button so inconveniently in back?
Will leave it in “on” position.
I am 67 years old. I have not had a turntable or vinyl records for a very very very long time. The turntable is wonderful. It is great. The sound is wonderful and I enjoy buying vinyl records again.
