Pretty affordable, but not sure whether it's great for vinyl.

Stereo inbuilt speakers

And Radio.

At worst, a really cool radio! And it just happens to also play vinyl records?

    Does it give out a warm sound to bring back memories of grandpa's gramophone?

      Sure it does, just in it's own Aus Post sorta way?

  • clandestino on 11/05/2024 - 18:51

    Built in speakers too?

    Sounds like a bargain to me. I can't get a smashed avocado and toast for $59 delivered nowadays.

      I sure think so!

        I bought one for on the back deck. I'm sure it'll prove to be one of my finest Ozbargain purchases.

          Thanks, new to the community so that means a lot. Let me know how it goes?

          Buy one for the front deck and garage too!

          I'm interested to know what the sound quality is too.

          I don't think so, but for $59 dollars and free delivery. Not a bad deal

          8 track?

          • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 20:19

            @smartazz104: Haha no 8 track or VHS …

      I think there's a 13.3 percent cash back on over $75?
      So about 10 dollars added on if you wanted to buy something else?

  • clandestino on 11/05/2024 - 18:54

    Now I can actually go out to a few op shops and buy some 78s. Haha

      Haha for sure, grab a heap of old vinyls with the savings!

    • raiseyoursteaks on 11/05/2024 - 19:23

      It will be like $0.50 each..

      • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 19:24

        Sure, but again. Just go to your local opshop

        • HolyCr4p on 11/05/2024 - 20:10

          Any bargain?

          • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 20:13

            @HolyCr4p: Personally I haven't bought any yet, but everywhere I've been there's 80s music for pretty cheap maybe 2 dollars each

  • gusk12 on 11/05/2024 - 19:14

    wouldnt play a vinyl worth $20 on this.

  • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 19:17

    I think it's a good deal though

    • HolyCr4p on 11/05/2024 - 19:51

      How much is rrp?

      • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 20:11

        Not sure, but for similar they are about 80 to 100

  • TEER3X on 11/05/2024 - 20:03

    Half decent turntables are much more expensive, I'd personally save my money and wait for a deal on audio technica AT-LP60 or the 120 model.

    These all in one units are often pretty craptastic. You'd most likely need a decent pair of speakers to go along with them.

    • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 20:14

      Agreed, but yeah idk it'd be great for a party or a bedroom prop or something.

  • pointless martyr on 11/05/2024 - 20:18

    this would be great to play all your tay-tay records on… and all your other LP's that you don't care for their longevity!

      It's all good man, we just don't think it's financially responsible to drop 2k into something right away?

      • pointless martyr on 11/05/2024 - 20:26

        all good bro - personally i rock a vintage pioneer turntable from 1978, cost me $100 on gumtree - if you have some kind of amp/stereo already you may find a decent deck is not as out of reach as you may think!

        • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2024 - 20:27

          Nice! Im still looking into it. And I do have an amp. So thanks for the feedback. Have a great day bro.

            @[Deactivated]: NW mate…the old Japanese models from the late 70's/early 80's era actually hold their value too, so if you want to resell down the track you wont lose - this thomson unit, to be blunt, is landfill in waiting - and will bring your LP's on it's coat tails!

      Good for DJ to make scratchy sound from spinning record

    Looking at the first picture this thing is so small the records don’t fit inside the cover

    • WatchNerd on 12/05/2024 - 09:16

      Yep would rather buy something 2nd hand on Gumtree from 20 or 30 years ago. It will be full size & possibly made in Japan.

    I really don’t recommend anyone buy this. Spend a little extra time and money finding something that won’t destroy your records and that will sound great. I mean, do what you want, but I can’t not say something when things like this get posted.

    • [Deactivated] on 12/05/2024 - 14:12

      It's still a good deal though, nonetheless for the price.

  • pizzip on 13/05/2024 - 00:37

    Don't actually use this for any records worth listening to
