House of Marley Stir It Up Wireless Bluetooth Turntable - Sustainably Crafted Bamboo Record Player, Recycled Rewind Fabric, Superior Sound, Black

First off, this is easy to set up with fairly clear yet minimal instructions (just one sheet). Open the box-in-a-box-in-a-box, pull out the turntable, grab the platter, use one of the special holes in the platter to reach your finger through and separate the SMALL rubber belt stored AROUND the center of the underside of the platter. When you look underneath at first, you will initially notice what is on the INSIDE of the center, but you want the more diminutive elastic band on the outside of that center ring. Drop the platter on the base, pop that belt around the gold spindle, drop the mat on the turntable, and you are already 90% of the way there. The rest of the instructions for setting up the hardware are perfectly clear so I will move on to the Bluetooth setup. Bluetooth pairing is easier than I expected. Even when doing it the first time, I asked myself, "How is this going to work?" because I am used to having a readout that helps me verify the connection via a pairing code. The trick here is to make sure you only have ONE bluetooth receiver in pairing mode. Once you have the receiver / headphones set to pair, just turn on the turntable, press the BT button to turn it on, then press it once more to connect. That's it! Bluetooth audio, which is all I have used so far, sounds fantastic. I've paired with headphones and also with a nice, loud stereo receiver. Keep in mind your sound quality ceiling is determined by both the turntable AND by the receiving device. I love the aesthetic, the sound, the use of recycled materials, the ease of connection. We have a more complicated turntable / preamp / EQ / receiver setup in another room, and this is just TREMENDOUSLY more accessible. On our "higher end" turntable setup, I feel like I need to perform a ceremony every time I want to give something a listen; the House of Marley turntable will get so much more use, I will get to really enjoy our vinyl collection so much more, and I haven't even done the wired setup yet. Even when still digital-ish due to the BT connection, the sound quality blows away the streamers. So anyway, I obviously recommend this. And regarding the fabric dust cover, I dig it, and it's less visible plastic in the aesthetic. This is my third record player purchase in about 10 years and far, far and away the best of the three (and the middle price of the three).

I finally got tired of having a totally manual turntable & dove back into the turntable market. I'm no audiophile & I do have budgetary restraints, so to get what I wanted at a price I could afford took some diligent research. The Marley unit stood out above the rest of the < $300 units. I was even able to get 1 with a bamboo deck - not bamboo-looking, real bamboo. The styling is minimalist & clean, but appealing. Set up was almost plug & play. There's a 3.5mm jack on the front so can plug an aux unit straight in. Or you can connect via Bluetooth. I've had issues with Bluetooth, so I plug in. There's a pre-amp on the unit. You'll need it 'on' when connecting directly with the unit. But you need to turn it 'off' if going thru an amp. Here's 1 of my 2 issues with the Marley, the pre-amp switch is mounted on the back of, & under, the unit. The other issue, the table just stops at the end of an album. You have to go & lift the arm yourself. The lift mech is smooth & even. It seems to work backwards, tho. I lift when I think I should lower & vice-versa. Bottom line - Love the Marley turntable!

This is a piece of garbage. Both turntable and speakers don't work properly. No sound. RCA cables are just for looks. Don't waste your money. Save up and buy a real turntable and real speakers.

This turntable is attractive and has great sound.

I bought this when it was on sale for $199. To get a table at that price with an aluminum platter, the ability to upgrade the cartridge or add an external preamp later was pretty compelling. Bluetooth, USB, headphone output were all cute but not must-haves. It was easy to setup and sounds pretty good. The Bluetooth drops briefly occationally and the internal preamp is a bit noisy. At it's regular price of $249 There are likely better performers from Fluance, U-Turn, or Audio Technica. But, since this is my first table after 35 years of digital-only music the Stir It Up by HOM is lots of fun and a great starting point! Oh, yeah, and being such a "green" product checks a box too!

This turntable has been an excellent buy. My wife and I enjoy Vinyl Sundays. We go to the Vegas Arts district on Saturdays a couple times a month and shop for vinyl. Then Sunday Mornings, get our coffee, sit in the backyard and listen to music. This turntable delivers excellent quality and has brought a lot of joy to our weekends! We love it!!

Looks beautiful. With the right setup, it sounds amazing, but.... It has some shortfalls, and concerns. What I like: (1) Beautiful look and color! (2) Easy wiring connection on the back. (3) Amazing sound - especially with powered Bookshelf speakers. What I wish was different: (1) Weight on arm can be a challenge to get right - and has limited range of adjustment (2) 30% of albums (even new ones) skip (3) Matching Bluetooth speakers that you can buy are a disappointment* (4) Does not auto return at the end (although the turntable does stop) (5) No proper cover (although there is a vinyl bag) (6) Tracking of arm is hard to get 100% right More details: I bought this as a reward for a house project (room) I was working on, and finally got a chance to use it in "my new room" Christmas day. I purchased the matching bluetooth speaks as well (same brand), and got it all setup up and bluetooth connected. First album was a mint conditioned Steve Winwood album (no stratches), but it has just a little wobble to it (not really bad). Within 60 seconds it skipped. Checked record for scratches and cleaned it. I adjusted tracking on the needle and weight. But only got marginal improvement. Thinking it was album, I switched to brand new Fleetwood Mac Rumors LP, but it skipped too. I tried to adjust arm weight and tracking more - only marginal improvement. Fortunately. Beatles album played flawlessly. Sound was tinny though. So I swapped speakers out with a nice set of powered bookshelf speakers, and sound quality was 500% better. AMAZING. But still same problem with albums regarding the occasional skips. I bought a highly regarded center weight to flatten records as they play for record player, but no improvement on albums that skipped. Next step is to swap out the needle with a better brand component to see it if fixes it. I'm also having a friend with a high-end turntable check to see if records that skip for me are a problem for him, but I doubt it. If anything changes - I will update the review. I want to love this with 5 stars - but just being honest.

The first thing you notice when you open the package, is the extra thought and care that went into packing it. The components were very well packaged and you can tell that someone actually spent some time putting it all together. It came with all kinds of wires and 4 different outlet adapters to fit wherever you might live. I am very impressed with the quality construction and it looks terrific! The operation was flawless and it quickly paired by BT with my various speakers and receiver. The range is acceptable, and doesn't lose signal as long as it is within 15 feet or so of my speaker. The drive unit itself is a little noisy, but certainly not obtrusive. Excellent product, well done.

Bonjour, contrairement à mon premier commentaire sur ce vendeur, par honnêteté je dois modifier mon commentaire précédent. Pour commencer le vendeur est top. A l'écoute, réactif et au final je le recommande absolument. Concernant la platine, j'ai lu plein de commentaire indiquant qu'il était difficile de la monter et de la régler ! Ah bon ? Montre en main, 10 minutes de montage et de réglages et hop ! on écoutait notre premier vinyle. Quel plaisir. Bon ok je n'ai pas l'oreille la plus fine du monde, certes mais on n'a pas acheté une platine à 3000 €, alors pour le prix, vu le but rechercher, écouter des vieux vinyles avoir le grain d'entant dans une ambiance cosy de notre salon en famille, c'est parfait. La qualité est au rendez-vous, l'esthétique et à couper le souffle et franchement l'absence de capot en plexi lui donne un look génial. Pour la poussière, il suffit de la faire de temps en temps et de la recouvrir le soir avec sa housse. Bon c'est vrai le BT ne semble pas être d'une grande compatibilité avec toutes les enceintes (j'attends ma Marshall Kilburn 2 pour le tester). Mais pour ce qui est de l'écoute au casque quel plaisir ! Pour ce qui est de l'emballage, rien à redire et j'ai du mal à comprendre les commentaire qui signale de la casse ou l'absence de pièces à l'intérieur. Il y a tous les câbles fournis en rapport avec toutes les connectiques proposées par la platine : alimentation, USB, Cable jack 3,5, Cable RCA ... Pour être tatillon, il pourrait être livré avec une brosse pour nettoyer les disques et une brosse pour lnettoyer le diamant (11,99€ sur Amazon !). Bon au final, je recommande absolument. Je posterai plus tard pour parler de l'association avec la KIlburn 2.

UNA PASADA!!!! Bonito, muy bien acabado, buenos materiales, funciona y reproduce de maravilla, calidad de sonido excelente y además lo compré con una estupenda oferta de Amazon warehouse, imposible mejorar esta compra. PERFECTO!!!

Muy bien embalado. Buena calidad de sonido. Gran compra a un precio ajustado.

Bei der Lieferung durch Warehouse fehlte anfangs leider die Nadel am Tonabnehmer. Amazon Typisch wurde das Problem beseitigt und das Geld für eine Nadel erstattet. Da ich nicht auf die neue Nadel warten wollte habe ich ein vorhandenes Ortofon System montiert. Den Klang des Audiotechnica Abnehmers kann ich daher nicht beurteilen. Das Gerät läuft ruhig und drehzahlkonstant. Eigengeräusche habe ich nicht festgestellt. Bluetooth ist eigentlich nicht Vinyl würdig aber zur Not gut funktionell. Die Staubhaube ist ein kleiner Wermutstropfen aber insgesamt ein gelungenes Gerät. Ein Schnellwechsel Bajonett für Tonkopfwechsel wäre such gut gewesen
