How we ranked these turntables

Every pick ranks in Amazon's best-seller list for its category and has a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

  • Bluetooth weight 1

Buying advice: vinyl player with built in speakers

Bluetooth input versus Bluetooth output

Bluetooth input streams music from a phone to the turntable speakers, while Bluetooth output sends vinyl playback to a wireless speaker or headphones. The Best Overall pick offers Bluetooth in and out, while the Runner-Up and Also Great picks offer Bluetooth input. Check which direction you need before choosing, since input alone cannot send vinyl to a wireless speaker.

Match speeds to your record collection

Check the speeds on the record sleeve against the turntable. The Best Overall and Runner-Up picks play 33 1/3, 45 and 78 RPM, while the Also Great pick plays 33 1/3 and 45 RPM. A record that needs 78 RPM needs a pick that plays it, and a collection of 7, 10 and 12 inch records fits each pick here.

Built-in speakers and external connections

Built-in speakers play records without a separate speaker, which suits a first setup. RCA output on each pick connects external speakers for louder sound when more volume is wanted. A headphone jack on the Runner-Up allows private listening, and AUX input on the Best Overall and Runner-Up picks takes music from another device.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need separate speakers for a turntable with built-in speakers?

No. Built-in speakers on each pick play records on their own, and RCA output connects external speakers when more volume is wanted.

What is the difference between Bluetooth input and Bluetooth output?

Bluetooth input streams music from a phone to the turntable speakers. Bluetooth output sends vinyl playback to a wireless speaker or headphones. Here, only the Best Overall pick offers Bluetooth output.

Can a built-in speaker turntable play 78 RPM records?

Some can. The Best Overall and Runner-Up picks play 33 1/3, 45 and 78 RPM, while the Also Great pick plays 33 1/3 and 45 RPM only.
