Review: TERRIFIC Vintage Record Player! - I thought this little record player is so amazing, I’ve bought 3 more as gifts! Now, I’m no sound expert, and obviously you aren’t getting top-of-the-line speakers, but I think it sounds great! And I’ve had it for 3 years and have had no problems at all! This is a great option for kids who are getting into music, someone old as dirt like me who used to spend hours in my room listening to The Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, etc., or someone thinking about getting a turntable but not sure if it will be used enough to warrant the high price tags!
Review: Pretty good for the price, but probably needs external amp/speakers - Ok, this is actually a pretty decent little unit for the money. I was seriously contemplating returning it because it sounded like it was skipping A LOT and/or the audio was cutting out (especially on quiet passages). I read through the reviews and saw that many people were complaining about the same thing, and when they contacted the company they were told that they should tape a light weight on top of the needle arm, like a penny (this was a common trick back when I was younger - 60's-70's when you didn't have an adjustment to increase the needle pressure). Many people said that it didn't work though. I have a professional audio background, and I felt like what I was hearing was maybe a cheap electronic circuit that was made to keep the small internal speakers from being overloaded and blowing them out - some kind of a dynamics controller like a compressor/limiter/gate device. So today I hooked up the external outputs on the back of the turntable enclosure to our entertainment system and it's speakers, and just turned down the volume knob on the turntable itself. WOW!! It works great now!!! I played about 6 or 7 albums - No skipping or volume dipping (except on the beginning of one of my old mid 70's records that was a little warped and I could actually see some gunk on it) and it sounds quite good (especially for what it is). So that's the deal - some sort of wonky electronics between the turntable and it's internal speakers. Not really very listenable without some external speaker system, but pretty decent otherwise. First time in decades that I've heard some of these albums on a turntable. I'll be keeping it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can i use this with a bluetooth speaker?**
A: The confusion in the answers to this question are because two different models are lumped together. The VSC-500BTC has "Vinyl Streaming Technology" meaning you can output the music to a Bluetooth speaker. The VSC-550BTC does not have the vinyl streaming feature. Both models can input Bluetooth to the internal speakers.

**Q: Can you plug this into a large stereo receiver to use some better speakers?**
A: Lots of confused answers here...  
The OP asked if they could plug this player into a "large stereo receiver" - to play the sound coming FROM the player on larger (better) speakers.  As Samuel Kline mentions it is certainly possible. Connect a red/white audio cable from the "RCA Out" jacks (on the back of the player) to your stereo amplifier (then connect that amp to your bigger/better speakers). Have fun...

@kbrieash: the stereo reciever needs an RCA-IN (pretty much all stereo receivers have an RCA-in)
@Siniwerx: no, this unit DOES have an RCA-out (it's on the back)
@James Orenthal K. Emmett Robsi… : no - that's for headphones- it's not the way to get good sound for a stereo receiver. Use the RCA-out (on the back of the player)
@Ralph: you'll get great sound if you use the RCA-out jacks on the back
@kbrieash (again): the original question was about using the sound FROM the player - not sending sound TO the player.
...phew!

**Q: Does it come with replacement needles? If not, where can you buy them?**
A: The Victrola Bluetooth Suitcase Turntable comes with one replacement needle in addition to the needle installed on the tonearm.  There is a simple way to get an additional replacement needle for free.  You register your Victrola Bluetooth Suitcase Turntable on Victrola.com.  As a thank you for doing so, Victrola mails you a free replacement needle.

**Q: does it come with 45 adapter? Thanks**
A: Yes a 45 adapter is included.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Journey I Definitely Didn’t Sign Up For
*by A***G on November 27, 2025*

I bought the Victrola Journey Record Player a year ago along with a stack of records I hand-picked like I was building a tiny museum of my favorite music. I placed each vinyl with the gentleness of a Disney princess handling a fragile woodland creature. I watched the tutorials. I replaced the needle. I put in effort. And this record player said, “Cute. Now let me absolutely remix your life.” Every. Single. Record? Scratched. Every song? Skipped like it was dodging responsibilities. Every listening attempt? Turned into cardio. This thing scratched my vinyl like it was auditioning for a DJ residency in Ibiza. It committed so hard to the DJ lifestyle that I half expected it to ask me for a wristband and a glitter crop top. Too bad I never wanted to be a DJ, Victrola believed in a dream I didn’t even have. BUT it’s okay! Truly. Because whenever I buy CDs from local bands, I never have anywhere cute to put them. And THAT is where this little device redeemed itself. It is, without question, the cutest and most hardworking CD holder I have ever owned. A stunning piece of décor. A loyal little storage unit. Completely useless for vinyl, but absolutely thriving as furniture. So yes, I’m giving it five glowing stars: ⭐️ For its commitment to the Ibiza DJ aesthetic. ⭐️ For turning my records into percussion instruments. ⭐️ For keeping me humble. ⭐️ For looking adorable. ⭐️ And one extra star for being an excellent CD perch. Victrola, whenever you start making CD players, DM me immediately. I want first dibs on whatever chaos you create next.
