Customer Reviews
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!
The Good:
I love the appearance of it. And the materials used to make it fairly good. The twist knob for the volume is an awesome feature as well as the retro life labeled felt pad.
The Bad:
I received my package with a creased felt pad. The speakers are sub par. You canĄŻt turn them up past 6 without having a slight hum that gets progressively worse as you turn them up. Unbearable at times. I contacted customer service about this and received virtually no assistance. They replied and said that they could send a new felt pad but it would just be a plain black one that wouldnĄŻt be labeled with the retro life insignia. I asked for new speakers as well, and they replied and said that I should try and pull it away from the power source more.
Simply beautiful player that works incredibly
Well. We are in love with this new way to enjoy music in our home!
The Retrolife Vintage High Fidelity Vinyl Record Player R517 with Built-in 4 Speakers is a beautiful piece. It is well built, stylish and easily set up. The speakers sound great. The only draw back is that are not very loud, even at full volume. Volume is sufficient if the room is quiet and listening is close by. I plan to hook up to external speakers at some point.
IĄŻm very happy with the record player. It sounds great!
