The Record Player That Brings It All Together.
A great vinyl setup should be about the music, not the equipment around it. Building a complete system can quickly mean choosing separate speakers, amplifiers, cables, and components, taking up more space and adding more complexity along the way. The HQ-KZ018 was designed to keep things simple without losing what makes vinyl special. With a quality turntable, 50W built-in speakers, and an Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge, it brings the essential pieces together in one thoughtfully designed all-in-one record player.
Put on a favorite record, stream music from your phone, or connect external audio when your setup grows. The HQ-KZ018 gives you a simple place to start, with room to keep listening your way.
Features
Built In Stereo Sound
Experience your records through a 50W four-speaker system, with dedicated tweeters and mid-bass drivers designed to deliver clear, balanced sound from a single all-in-one record player.
Easy Vinyl Listening
From placing the record to lowering the tonearm, the HQ-KZ018 keeps vinyl listening straightforward with intuitive controls and a simple, easy-to-use design.
Classic Record Player Design
A retro-inspired wood-grain finish brings the timeless character of a classic record player, while its all-in-one design fits naturally into modern living spaces.
Smooth, Stable Playback
The belt-drive system and high-inertia 12-inch platter work together to maintain consistent rotation, giving your records a smooth and steady playback experience.
Four Drivers. One Balanced Sound.
The HQ-KZ018 brings a carefully configured 50W speaker system to an all-in-one record player. Its four-speaker architecture pairs two 15W tweeters with two 10W mid-bass drivers, giving each part of the frequency range its own dedicated driver. The tweeters handle the highs, while the mid-bass drivers add body and depth to your music.
The result is a balanced speaker setup designed to make vinyl sound fuller and more engaging, without the need for a separate amplifier or speaker system.
Balanced Sound Across The Frequency Range
Wide 50-20Hz/3dB frequency range, offering deeper bass and a broader soundstage. With 88+3dB high and 85+3dB low sensitivity, it ensures a balanced, immersive audio experience.
Bluetooth Input for Modern Streaming.
The HQ-KZ018 brings wireless listening into an all-in-one record player without adding another component to your setup. Its built-in Bluetooth input connects your smartphone, tablet, or other compatible device directly to the four-speaker system, giving you an easy way to stream playlists, podcasts, and more through the same speakers you use for vinyl.
Put on a record when you want the ritual. Stream wirelessly when you want convenience. The choice is built into the player.
Moving Magnet, Audiophile-Grade Sound
The ATN-3600L MM moving magnet cartridge ensures <0.7% stylus tracking deviation for precise analog reproduction, capturing rich textures and fine musical details for audiophile-grade sound.
Precise Tracking With <0.7% Force Deviation
With tracking force controlled within <0.7% and exact angular alignment, the tonearm ensures the stylus follows grooves accurately for high-fidelity audio and minimal record wear.
Easy-to-Use Record Player
Getting started with vinyl doesnât have to be complicated. The HQ-KZ018 combines straightforward controls with a cueing lever and adjustable tracking force, giving you the essentials for smooth, controlled playback.
When the record finishes, the auto-stop function stops the platter. From placing the record to starting playback, every control is designed to make vinyl listening easy, even if this is your first record player.
Expand Your Listening Setup
At the heart of the HQ-KZ018 is a built-in four-speaker system designed to make vinyl listening simple from the start. But when your setup grows, RCA output gives you the flexibility to connect powered speakers or an amplifier for a different listening configuration.
Start with the convenience of built-in speakers, then add external audio equipment when youâre ready. The HQ-KZ018 gives you a complete setup today, with room to build your system tomorrow.
