qwerter Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Does anyone know anything about all-in-one turntable systems? I need to get a half-decent one as a present. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Muon N' Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 What do you mean in "all in One"? If what I think it means I have never seen a half decent one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is for someone who is not into audio at all, but wants to play few old records. They would probably want a bluetooth in it as well. Forget the audiophile side of things.

MoveD Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) This guy explained it clearly what it does. It’s essentially a VPI made TT? I really want it in my study or bedroom but I don’t have $12k! Edited December 7, 2019 by MoveD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobes Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Recent Technics 1210GR buyer here, so perhaps a bit biased. The sister model 1500C comes with integrated phono stage and Ortofon 2M Red cartridge and will give, foolproof operation with the legendary Technics performance, stability and longevity. https://www.technics.com/au/products/premium-class/direct-drive-turntable-system-sl-1500c.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobes Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I actually like the cleaner look of the 1500C vs the more expensive 1210GR I got. Specs are very similar and the 1500C uses the same motor as the GR - the platter is 2kg vs the 2.5kg for the GR. I suspect performance would be very close and the 1500C has the convenience of the inbuilt phono stage (which can be bypassed if you wish to use a separate phono preamp). Looks like a very nice package to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejt Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 what about an old music centre? That would also get them a tuner function as well. No bluetooth but streaming could be done with a chromecast or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
