Vinyl As It’s Meant To Be Heard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PS-LX5BT for me is the perfect next step into vinyl after many years of streaming music. The turntable design is sleak & minimalistic but that does not take away from the build quality which is superb. Out of the box this was simple to set up with good step by step instructions and took less than 10mins. You can play either albums or singles with a simple change of the 33 or 45 toggle selector,it also comes with a 45 adapter which has a neat storage slot at the side of the unit meaning its travels wherever your turntable goes. The addition of the Start,Stop and Up/Down buttons means no more fiddling with the sensitive stylus and accurate placement each time. You also have the dust protect cover which is a must for your favourite records. The turntable can be easily paired with any Bluetooth audio device just by pressing the Bluetooth button, currently I have mine paired with my headphones. The pack also comes with audio cables if you prefer to connect to an entertainment system or speakers that way. There is an option at the rear to select the gain you prefer from Low,Mid or High. Once set up the sound quality is just what you want from vinyl, it gives you music the way the artist meant it to be heard that possibly some streaming takes away. For me the deep rich sounds I get from my records are taken to another level with the PS-LX5BT. Once finished listening simply press stop and the stylus arm returns to home the secure with the arm lock for next time.

Easy to use and versatile turntable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This deck impresses with a minimalist design and solid aluminium construction. It’s built around a belt-driven platter and precision aluminium tonearm for smooth rotation and reduced vibration — all helping lower noise and improve stability. The turntable supports 33⅓ and 45 RPM speeds and plays both 7″ and 12″ records. It uses a high-precision Moving Magnet (MM) cartridge with ~2.0 g tracking force and offers fully automatic start, stop, and return, which makes it great for casual listening. Power adaptor is 10W USB-C. Does not have a 3.5mm audio jack. Even though it does not have a 3.5mm audio jack, on the connectivity side, you get: - Bluetooth® transmitter that supports SBC, aptX and aptX Adaptive for wireless streaming to speakers or headphones. - Line/Phono outputs via a built-in phono pre-amp and gold-plated audio jack for premium wired audio. - Gain select controls (Low/Mid/High) so you can tailor output to your system. Note that USB-B port is not available for this UK model. The auto operation is ideal for newcomers, and the built-in preamp means fewer external components required. Sound quality is generally clean and detailed for this class of turntable. If you want to relive the good old vinyl records era, this device offers simple operation with modern sound quality and connectivity. Overall, the unit is an easy-to-use turntable that steps up from basic models with better build quality, flexible connectivity (wired + Bluetooth), and high-resolution audio support. It’s a compelling choice if you want modern convenience with classic vinyl playback.

A Fabulous Turntable With Added Technology

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using the turntable in my study whilst working and relaxing with my music. Mainly use it at night. I really like the ease of use and I have already recommended it to several music addicts like me. Retained the look and style of a traditional turntable with the addition of the Bluetooth facility. smooth rise and fall of the arm onto the vinyl. Great and easy operation, On off switch at the rear is good no confusion totally separate. The up down operation means easy accurate track queuing up. No danger of damaging the album surface. The turntable is totally silent and the belt drive is superb for perfect motion. Linking both my speakers and headphones to the turntable was easy and the fact that up to six bluetooth connections are available is advantageous. I haven't needed to use the leads to connect to my system as yet but great to see that this facility is available. Because the turntable is so professionally produced with traditional controls much improved, a high quality belt drive, great suspension and the addition of Bluetooth the value is relevant for this high standard. The build quality was obvious when I was setting the turntable up. The various parts were of the highest quality and finish possible. Buttons, stylus, lid all of high quality. I am extremely knowledgeable with regard to this sort of product and this turntable is so advanced and yet simple to use I am advanced in years but my love of both music and this sort of high end product still play an extremely important part of my leisure and work time. I am male living in Monmouthshire. Already a lifelong Sony fan I constantly refer my friends to Sony
