Portable Vintage TurntableThis is an elegant player. Made to look retro and to feel like a short case instead of the usual suitcase idea. The case is made of hard plastic and is designed very well with convenient controls. It has 33, 45 and 78 velocities and easy installation and operation. And it has two stereo front end speakers, but if you prefer, the RCA jacks can be mounted on the control panel to your home stereo. A style needle is provided, but there is also a spare part. Use easily ... Unit controls are well designed and thought-through, we suspect, for someone who may not have had record players' experience a few years ago. Companies often believe that everyone knows what to do with a record player. They show you very clearly with this product. The top is the tonearm controls, a raising height, a swiveling auto stop and a swivel speed, the power on / off and volume control. A headphone jack is also available. When you move the unit the tonearm has a secure clip. Everything was nice ... The auxiliary jack at the back connects other equipment, headphones, etc. and RCA out jack to connect external speakers. All is well planned and self-explained. It's easy to use, and one downside is that the turntable starts spinning as the tonearm is shifted to record. A dust cover is provided. It's a large little unit at the size. Pros

Fully automatic belt-drive stereo switchable Audio-Technica AT-LP60X-BKAudio-Technica has a long history in creating audio systems in excellence. Originally founded in the 60's, they are a Japanese company, but now have a US company. This model is an upgraded version of its popular and previously released LP60. A few additional features and models are available in the new LP60X. It operates at 33 and 45 rpm and is fully automated with a belt driven turntable. Kick back and rest ... By fully auto-turning this indicates that the turntable queues and only presses the start button to begin playing the record itself and returns the tonearm once play is complete. This was well assembled with decent materials. The plate is made of diecast aluminum and is antiresonant. Tone and head was designed to enhance monitoring and raising echo with a very different style. And it comes with a dual magnet cartridge with a replaceable diamond design. It has an integrated phono preamp that attaches to the speakers through RCA cables from the stereo at home and has a hinged dust cover that can be removed. Some nice features ... The table is fine and a little more expensive than any of the ones we have looked at here. It is comfortable and beautifully built by a respectable audio manufacturer, with some decent apps. It does not contain some of the finer design characteristics of more costly machines, though. It is very well an initial turntable. But always a decent piece of equipment and certainly one of the finest turntables of under $100 worth considering. Pros

Jensen JTA-230 3 Turntable Size StereoThis player is incredibly versatile. If you watch the best tables under $100 and video players like this. All and all, if you are unaware of the bottom end of the financial table, Jensen is also a strong entry point. It is compact, not visually the most attractive unit, but has some nice characteristics. Naturally it has speakers onboard, that means that you don't need external devices and it's very compact because it's so smaller. Digital record format ... You can also connect to your MP3 player and download the vinyl records to your phone or iPod. It has a USB port. The cable is provided with this link. You can play your music from your devices with an auxiliary jack socket. If you want a better sound via RCA production, you do have the option to attach external speakers. It has 33, 45 and 78 rpm belt and has stereo speakers. It's a belt-driven machine. All these features are good and make this a lovely device. Yet, a trap is there ... It is important to note, though, that it is a budgetary commodity, which means that the sound and audio reproduction are not always of high quality. It's pretty well put together, but the items are not of the finest standards, so you would expect something to go wrong at last. You would consider a device to be in this price range with the built-in speakers and the program used to handle move files to other formats might challenge your flexibility. That's what it is. A cash player that will encourage you to join the vinyl industry and you won't be too disappointed as long as you consider it as such. Pros

3-Speed Turntable Jensen JTA-222Another record player / turntable in the budget entry stage for Jensen. This model also has an AM / FM stereo inside, but it is not just a record player / turntable. The "radiogram" is gone. Well, not quite, but there's been thinking. It is built with a wooden frame, which gives it a look that reminds of past days. The front control panel seems to have been mounted on the front of a steam-powered radio in the 40s. We really suppose a kind of quaint. Take it with you ... Take it with you ... It's worth remembering those features. Two speakers and RCA speaker output jacks in front of the speaker. A power indicator and dust cover for stereo headphones. Like we said before it had an AM / FM radial with an FM stereo indicator and is incredibly compact with a weight of only six pounds. It can run at three speeds, 33, 45 and 78. A nice small product at the entry level ... There is a cabled USB port which converts your vinyl into a digital format. Audio recording and conversion software is included. It's a nice small entry into the vinyl world. But it won't win any prizes for sound quality, as for all budget products. Very good money worth ... Very good value ... It must be properly configured. And it is not possible to just pull them out of a shipped box and expect them to be fine. That may not be the case and one or two items can have to be modified many times. If you do, you'll find that this is a competent little machine that has excellent money value. It's very loud and fits well for the money we've spent and we love the 'old dial' for the radio on the front. Pros

The Executive Portable USB Powertable Crosley CR6019A-BRYou would be excused to think you worked in the financial district if you walk through the center of every town. The two-tone Black and Brown Vinyl Mock Leather looks certainly makes it look like a very fashionable vintage case and the brass-looking clips and accessories add up to the style. Their style is very refined. It would impress Gordon Gekko. Okay, not perhaps? But what we say, you know. Requires a hand to help ... It has a three-speed belt drive, 33, 45 and 78 rpm. It's also fitted with an aux-in and RCA audio and a USB to connect your Mac or Laptop. And the stereo speakers are there. A ceramic cartridge is provided. It is not an automated turntable, let us find out. It means that the turntable ceases at the end of the song, but the tonearm does not return to its rest and must be manually replaced. Look of antique ... Can you remember those record players you had to take back the tonearm to spin the turntable? Yes? Yes? Yes? That's one of them. How cool is it? Just another vintage piece to be added to the list. Of course, it's not easy, so who cares. This small unit is very inexpensive, so you can't expect anything of its efficiency, but it has a decent cost, few helpful small features and a nice look. This may not be of the highest level, but you will enjoy this. Pros
Cons
And what's best for the under $100 turntables?That was a very hard option. This is more important than just sound, due to the consistency of the audio that the devices generate. For some, it is an entry into the vinyl world for others, and a return to the past days.
With her shortcase, we loved Crosley, and some of the others were good. There were also quite good platforms, but finally we went to the best platforms Under $100, the Bluetooth Suitcase Turntable Victrola Vintage 3 speed It's still fantastic light. Great small machine and great money value.
