Wow and flutter
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
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.

Features
has a built-in preamp
✔JBL Spinner BT
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.
Drive type
Belt drive
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.
has anti-skating
✔JBL Spinner BT
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.
has auto-start
✔JBL Spinner BT
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.
has auto-stop
✔JBL Spinner BT
When the end of the record is reached, the record player will automatically stop the motor.
has auto-return
✖JBL Spinner BT
When the end of the record is reached, the tonearm will automatically return.
45 adapter included
✔JBL Spinner BT
