Great Sound and a Beautiful Vintage Look
Setup was pretty straightforward, and the included bookshelf speakers sound clear, warm, and surprisingly powerful. The wood-style finish looks even better in person and gives the whole system a nice vintage feel. Bluetooth connected easily, which is convenient when I want to play music from my phone instead of putting on a record.

Great starter setup!!
This is my first turntable and a new collector of vinyl. As a casual listener, this is a great one to go with! It sounds warm and looks wonderful in my apartment. It feels nicely made.
I was super bummed when I first received it because the stylus was defective and wouldn’t clip onto the cartridge. I reached out to SeeYing to see if they could help me out. I purchased a replacement one while we troubleshooted and discovered that it was indeed the stylus. After I let them know this, they offered to refund me the amount that I spent on it. Above and beyond customer support! I am very happy with my purchase and look forward to finding more awesome albums to add to my collection!

Perfect for those who like to listen to records anytime of the day.
But this for myself as a late birthday gift better late than never I guess sounds wonderful. Comes with a felt platter so you won’t get no skipping or static on your record playing.
Courtney Richards | Finds For Families
We’ve loved it. A fun addition for our family room!
I will start by saying we are not experts in record players at all so when we were looking for a player, we wanted something simple with its own speakers to get a good quality sound without spending an arm and a leg that still looked nice to leave out in our family room.
This checked all of those boxes. We inherited a lot of records so we were really excited to get this and start playing them as well as acquire some new ones of our own. The kids really enjoy this different type of listening and get excited when we turn one on.
It’s super easy to use and with the speakers the sound quality is great. We don’t really have many issues with it skipping or anything unless a kid jumps very hard right next to it.
I love the wood look with the acrylic cover so you can see the records through it. It’s just fun!
The only downside is needing to plan for a place for it all to live so to speak. You almost need to have a cabinet or surface planned out specifically for this plus the speakers unless you plan to mount the speakers on the wall.

Amazing sound quality, excellent record player!
The sound is fantastic and the customer support is amazing! It was incredibly easy to set up and the music is so clear. Excellent record player and speakers, highly recommend to anyone looking for a good player with speakers included! The Bluetooth is a great feature if you just want to use the speakers since they sound incredible on their own also

BUY THIS RECORD PLAYER!
BUY THIS RECORD PLAYER!!!! It sounds like I’m playing my songs on a high quality speaker. Fairly easy to set up, took me less than 30 mins once I figured it out.

A perfect LP player for the average home, worth it's money.
Perfect. Very glad I bought it. It wasn't too hard to put together, and worked with no issues and looks very pretty. Sounds wonderful!! I also like that it's uncomplicated. Definitely easy to use. it was worth how much I paid definitely.

3 Years In, Still An Amazing Player!
I bought this record player in 2022 based on all of the rave reviews about how great the sound quality was for such a reasonably priced player. As someone who had never owned a record player I wanted to get the most bang for my buck. Three years later, I can still say that this is one of the best players I've ever played vinyl's on and I can't recommend it enough.

A Great Choice for Playing Records!
This is my first turntable choice! It was very easy to set up. Beautiful sound, and the wood finish is very classy. This can play 33's, 45's, and connect to your electronic device via bluetooth. If you ever need any direction on how to balance the counterweight onto the needle, their customer service answers your questions quickly and efficiently!

The best entry level "bang for your buck"
Wow, what an upgrade from a very basic Victrola! I'm sure it's not the perfect audiophile setup but for someone just starting out in vinyl this is incredible. All of the materials are impressively solid. The counterweight is a bit finicky on install and the instructions for that part were a bit odd (I recommend getting a stylus scale to actually get it dialed in).
Included speakers have excellent sound quality. You mean to tell me there are basslines I've been missing because I was using a unit with built in speakers? Who would've guessed.
Appearance is flawless. Product arrived in perfect condition and was easy enough to assemble. I haven't tested the Bluetooth function yet but I don't really plan on using that much.

Great Record Player + Bluetooth Speaker!
This is an excellent record player! I was more than thrilled with the ease of set-up and its functionality. It seamlessly switches between records and Bluetooth capabilities. It is often something that draws compliments from house guests, as well!

Don’t Sleep On This!!!
This is probably the best Black Friday deal I’ve ever gotten! We’ve had this record player for almost two years and the sound quality, ease of use, and style is second to none. An unexpected issue came up with our speaker and SeeYing’s customer service immediately worked with us to resolve it with no fuss and kindness. Our vinyl player is treasured in our home and has brought us many happy Sundays with cups of coffee, dancing in our living room. So happy to have found this one!

You need one
this was the perfect gift for one of my friends. The sound quality is amazing and the volume that it can excel to is beautiful without damaging any of the music it’s a really easy set up.
Vicky
Great for novice and new hobby listeners for sure!!
I like it and I like listening to it! 🎶Speakers are not high tech, not super loud but WiFi is a an option so problem solved. Easy to hook to the player. Not hard to put together but watch the video the seller made (I think) that shows the process, thank you for the video! The turntable does not wobble, no weight needed. The bothersome thing for me is the on/off switch is in the back of your player (in the video I show it). The lid prevents dust from gathering on your vinyl if you leave your record on the player (guilty). They have 3 speeds one is for 45 vinyl records which is nice! Lid closes slow not slam and the plastic is good thick quality! Great for a novice player like me or for someone that does not need loud music, just love listening to vinyl in a living room (me!) I think the sound quality is pretty good! Change the power switch and it would be a 5 star review, but thinking back to highschool my sister switch on her record player might have been in the back too 😝
Reese Chilton
Sound quality is so good!!!
I love this turntable!!! It was a perfect upgrade from my suitcase player! The only thing I haven’t liked so much was learning how to balance the counterweight so it plays my vinyls correctly but that’s user error for sure. It’s a learning curve!! Speakers are amazing & super easy to set up!
Jess
OBSESSED!
The quality and aesthetic of this player is A1! The volume also fills a room so nicely, I was shocked with how loud it can go. Very easy to put together and fits great in my space. Excited to listen to all my vinyls on this!

Seems like a nice looking, functional and good sounding stereo record player
I bought this product, "Record Player Vinyl Bluetooth Turntable with 36 Watt Stereo Bookshelf Speakers" in order to donate it to a local museum that had received an earlier donation of LP records from somebody else, but had nothing to play them with. They had no budget for buying a small stereo system with turntable, nor did they have much space available for such equipment.
Before carting this product over to the museum, I set it up on the box it came in in my laundry room; if there was anything wrong with it, I wanted to know before loading it in the car.
The included user's manual is pretty good, with decent illustrations and comprehensible English instructions. It led me through the steps of assembly (mount the cover to the base, install the turntable drive belt, install the platter, install the tone-arm counterweight and adjust it, remove the shipping ties and stylus protector, connect the speakers with the included cables, plug in the included AC power supply) without any issues.
Operation is simple:
- If playing a record, select 33 or 45 RPM using a knob, turn the power switch (on the rear of the player) to ON, verify the red LED is lit. Place the tone-arm stylus on to the record, and adjust the volume as desired.
- If using the product as a set of Bluetooth powered speakers, turn the RPM knob to the position designated by the Bluetooth symbol, start playing the music source on your Bluetooth device, and adjust the volume on this product as desired (this product DOES NOT allow playing a record and having the audio "go out" to other equipment via Bluetooth).
The product has in internal phono preamplifier that matches the characteristics of the included Audio-Technica model AT-3600L phono cartridge. A pair of RCA jacks on the rear of the product allow you to connect it to a stereo system or to some device that can record a stereo line-level signal. If you wish to use a separate phono preamp, a "Phono/Line" switch on the rear of this product can be moved to cause the raw (un-amplified) phono cartridge signal to come out via those same two RCA jacks.
The internally pre-amplified audio signal is also internally converted to a digital audio signal that is accessible via a USB jack on the rear of this product. A USB cable is included for connecting to a computer. The User's Manual described how to set up the AUDACITY computer software to record the digital audio; no mention is made about accessing the digital audio using any other kind of software application. It DOES say that there is no need for a special driver to recognize this product, so perhaps other applications other than Audacity will also work; I have not tried this.
I played the nearest available LP to test out this product; it was an old recording of Bach music for organ and natural trumpet. With the volume control set to 50%, I was surprised and pleased by the volume of sound coming out of the two to speakers that come with this record player. The fidelity was better than I expected, I did not hear any unwanted noise, hiss or hum. The amplitude of the sound was quite adequate for listening in a smaller room such as a bedroom or office, but I think not loud enough to properly fill something like a good sized living room. The highs were clear, the bass richer and deeper than I expected; the pipe organ on the test recording sounded quite good.
The appearance of the finish is excellent. It really looks like it is made from nicely finished hardwood, but I am pretty sure it is just plastic. Likewise, the two speakers look nice and weigh enough to suggest a decent quality driver inside. The tonearm looks like something from a $1000 high end turntable, although I suspect that it is mostly plastic with a metal finish that looks like black anodized satin finish aluminum. I am sure the included phono cartridge is a low end model but it seems to work well enough.
I could not detect any "wow" (platter speed irregularities).
The platter is sized for a normal LP, and an adapter for 45RPM records is included. The platter is very heavy, adding speed stability.
There are a few small complaints:
- On mine, I had a hard time removing the stylus protector without it pulling the cartridge off of the tonearm in the process.
- The "tonearm lift" mechanism on mine is much slower to lower the tonearm down to the record than I would have preferred; it lowers so slowly that at first I thought is was broken. This might be something that loosens up over time.
- I would have preferred that the power switch was located in a more accessible place than around the rear.

Modern Record Player with Speakers - plays great!
I've recently started record collecting and I needed a good quality record player and speakers that wouldn't break the bank. I was specifically looking for a more modern look and this system caught my eye. It's been almost a month since I bought this record player, and so far I absolutely love it! This system offers an adjustable counterweight and also comes with a 45 vinyl attachment. The speakers have good sound quality too. The packaging also was great and very sturdy and I haven't had any issues. I'd definitely recommend this system to anyone looking for something more modern yet affordable!
Luis Adolfo Chacon Saucedo
Amazing quality
Honestly it looks really cool! Better in person than the pictures. I am very impressed by the sound quality of the speaker. It was easy to balance the arm and records play very smoothly. The Bluetooth feature works amazing. I don't regret at all getting this turnable! I recommend it a 100 %

Great customer service!
UPDATE: I just received, as Joey had promised, my replacement turntable and speakers, and it sounds awesome!! My daughter and I are thrilled! Thank you Joey and Seeying for taking great care of us! You truly went above and beyond in providing great customer care!
I purchased the SY101 for my daughter as a Christmas gift in 2023, and it had a great sound. Unfortunately, it stopped working after just 8 months, which was a real disappointment. However, Joey in customer service made things right! He first sent me a part his technical team recommended, and followed up via email to see if it worked. When I told him it didn't, Joey apologized and offered to replace it for free! His dedication to excellent customer service is truly impressive. …I’ll follow up on my review of the SY101 when I get it, but for now, Joey in customer service gets 5 stars!

Better Than It Should Be
I am have collected vinyl for novelty sake for a while. By that I mean I have a few that I value and a bunch that were given to me that are compilations and have little interest. However, I couldn’t believe the quality of this stereo. The materials are great and it doesn’t feel cheap at all. The fact that it has a heavy metal plate to sit under the record screams quality. The speakers are great for their size and space. It was a bit cumbersome to get the counterweight adjusted (again, novice user) but once it was set I could tell the sound was going to impress me. The weight of the entire unit was not too bad, but it was definitely more than I thought it would be for the price.
I guess my title says it all, this is better than it should be for the money. Rather than investing in a very cheap briefcase style player, spend a little more to get this quality piece that looks better and will not damage your vinyl as you spin it.

Absolutely Perfect
As someone who has been using an all in one table like most other people getting into this space, this is an amazing upgrade. The sound quality is nice and crisp and it really just looks beautiful in my room.
Customer service is amazing. Like I said before, I'm rather new to this space, so I had about a million questions and they were very helpful with everything, and promptly.
If you're a beginner like me and want to get into this space, this is an absolutely high quality kit with a very nice price point. Why would you spend literal thousands more for *maybe* a 5% increase in audio quality?

Beautiful Turntable & Great Quality!
This is my first turntable, and I have been searching for a while for one that I would love. I’m often somebody who won’t buy the most expensive brand/quality out there but also doesn’t want the cheapest (especially for equipment like this), so I’ll spend a long time looking for a deal on something in between. I couldn’t be happier with this find. The turntable is stunning, and the sound quality has been great from the start! I’ve only had it setup for two nights now, so I can’t speak to longevity, but it does appear to be solid, and I have high hopes for this being a system I’ll have for a long time to come. The only challenge I had was initial setup. As somebody who knew nothing about turntables, the instructions and pictures certainly felt bare bones, but I took my time and was willing to re-read and go back and forth between the information to figure it out (so, it’s not impossible, but it could require extra time and patience for the newbies out there). I have not tried the Bluetooth connectivity yet, but the instructions did have a section on that, so I think it should be easy enough to figure out, if/when I want to use it.

ASSEMBLY required NOT Bluetooth from vinyl to speaker
First off, box arrived damaged but thankfully the components were individually packaged well so no issue. I strongly suggest you watch some of the videos that are listed in the reviews etc. - they were helpful as the paper instructions are a bit vague and leave you questioning yourself over and over - at least it did for me!
Once I figured out how to handle the stylus weight "thing" I found no sound coming from one of the speakers. I had sound if using the Bluetooth function (more on that in a bit) but not whilst playing a record. They suggested I write to the seller - which I did. Within 24 hours they responded (nice) and suggested I "gently play with the four wires on the stylus (needle) area" I did see the four wires (speaker) so I played with them a bit - pushed them a bit forward and back then tried it and voila - sound out of both speakers. Pretty decent sound too- just played an old Moody Blues album and brought me back 50 years!
BLUETOOTH:
Bit disappointed in this feature and it's my bad for not reading enough of the comments. The Bluetooth feature is only IN - example playing from Pandora on your Iphone to the speakers of the unit. You CANNOT be playing a record and expect to hear this on your Bluetooth speaker. A bit misleading to the novice tech person like me.
ON/OFF: its TOTALLY manual-record will continue to spin once to the end -no automatic shut off or arm return to it's home. Again, not like the systems I grew up with. SO, a definite CON - can't go to sleep with music playing!
SOUND:
Pretty good for two basic speakers, no woofers and no ability to adjust like the old days with bass/treble dials etc.
Over all it's not a bad system, looks kinda like the older versions from the 60-70's just missing some of the great features (auto ON/OFF and arm return) and wish it played the vinyls OUT to a Bluetooth speaker etc

Sounds amazing, looks amazing
I wanted a new player for our living room because our older one that we had from the 70s broke and is nearly impossible to fix.
This player was a great replacement, the slund quality is so good on both newer and older recorde. The bluetooth connection is easy to connect
Packaging on this item is well put together and very secure, set up was easy, I did have trouble with balancing the arm but luckily there are videos in the items page to help.
My only gripe is that the on button is on the back of the player to the left. But once you hear how amazing and loud your music can be played it doesnt matter.

Best Record Player I've Ever Had!
I received this record player yesterday and could not wait to play it so I put it together immediately. I was a little nervous about assembling it myself but it only took about 20 minutes and it actually helped me see how easy this will be to care for in the future! The belt is so simple to put on, the speakers clip together in seconds, give the weight a twist onto the arm and you are all set! I was previously using an older record player from SeeYing with a sound bar and had no complaints at all. But I have to say these speakers that come with this new unit are unbelievable. The sound is so clear and crisp and there is no reverb or muddling no matter how high you turn it up. I think this also has to do with the heavy plate the record spins on. I don't think I've seen one that thick before and it makes a big difference in sound quality.
This unit is gorgeous and suprisingly solid. I love the wood finish, it's retro looking without feeling dated.
If you're in the market for something new to play your vinyl on, this is it. I can't recommend it enough!! Treat yourself!
I also really appreciate SeeYing's customer service department. It seems they are overseas but quick to respond to inquiries and it honestly feels like they not only care about the quality of their products but the happiness of their customers.
I'm a big fan.
Purchase and enjoy!

Not worth the money.
The speakers sound cheap and you have to have a special output plug with both right and left to connect to another speaker. You cannot connect a speaker via Bluetooth or use headphone/auxiliary type connectors. The Bluetooth capability is intended for using the unit’s speakers to play sound from other devices.
The turn dial used for selecting the desired function doesn’t match up with the markings on the unit and doesn’t have a definitive stop feel for each function. The turn dial feels a spongy while turning it. There is a light that comes on once you reach the desired function, but when trying to set it to the Bluetooth function, it needs precision. It works like a turn dial to choose a radio station. If you aren’t exactly on it, there is a buzz or white noise.

SO HAPPY I PURCHASED THIS!!!
SO HAPPY I PURCHASED THIS RECORD PLAYER! This little guy is amazing! The sound quality is FAR better than my Crosley, the dust cover serves to protect it, and I love the addition of the AM/FM radio! Honestly I can not recommend this enough, if you are a novice vinyl lover and need a sturdy but cost efficient player, search no further. The volume alone shreds the competition in Crosley or other players. Love this record player!!!
