Design
The material that the platter is made from.
The material of the tonearm.
The shape of the tonearm.
The width represents the horizontal dimension of the product.
The height represents the vertical dimension of the product.
The thickness (or depth) of the product.
We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
Specifications
Wow and flutter refers to the accuracy of the motor. Less accurate motors will fluctuate more (spinning faster or slower), resulting in audible changes to the pitch of the record as it plays.
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) refers to the amount of background noise that you can hear when playing a record. A record player with a higher SNR can produce cleaner, more accurate audio.
A USB output allows you to connect to digital devices such as a PC. It’s useful if you wish to digitize your records.
Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows you to easily transfer data between different devices, such as smartphones, tablets and computers.
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
aptX is a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm, and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps.
The speeds that the record player is capable of playing.
Cartridge
The type of cartridge that comes with the record player. There are two types: moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC).
A higher channel separation means that the cartridge is more accurate in reproducing the stereo field of the record.
The lowest frequency of the cartridge, which is usually 20 Hz. Lower frequencies may provide additional audio detail.
The highest frequency of the cartridge, which is usually 20,000 Hz. Higher frequencies may provide additional audio detail.
Features
The audio signal produced by the cartridge is very weak and needs to be amplified so it is loud enough to be played from the speakers. A built-in preamp allows you to directly connect to your speakers, without needing to have a separate preamp.
The two drive types for record players are direct drive and belt drive. Although it’s a matter of personal preference, direct drive is generally preferred by DJs and belt drive is often preferred by audiophiles.
Skating is where the tonearm is pulled towards the center of the platter while playing a record, which can distort the audio and also cause skipping/damage to the record. The anti-skating feature applies a counter-force that reduces or eliminates skating.
This feature allows you to start playing the record with the press of a button, which will automatically place the tonearm onto the record and start playing.
When the end of the record is reached, the record player will automatically stop the motor.
When the end of the record is reached, the tonearm will automatically return.
The record player comes with a 45 adapter. This allows you to play 45 rpm records without purchasing a separate adapter.
