![Ultimate Sinatra [2 LP]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41WULGxwgEL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
I'm just a beginner to the vinyl scene, but I think this thing is awesome. The only downside to it is that if you have people walking around the room while the record is playing it might skip and jump a bit, especially if they are heavy footed (or small children being crazy). The record player itself meets or exceeds all of my expectations. I was really worried I'd have to figure out how to manually place the needle on the record, and I feared I'd ruin it, but the automatic start feature eliminates those fears. This thing is really slick. It seems like perfect entry level record player.
For those wondering what you'll need to get this setup, here's the other items I chose to purchase:
Speakers:
Micca MB42 Bookshelf Speakers With 4-Inch Carbon Fiber Woofer and Silk Dome Tweeter (Black, Pair)
Speaker wire:
AmazonBasics 16-Gauge Speaker Wire - 100 Feet
Mini-Amplifier:
Seeduck Lepy lp 2020a Class-D Hi-Fi Audio Mini Amplifier with Power Supply Lepy Amplifier LP2020A
I'm putting this all here because I had to spend some time researching all of this, hopefully it helps someone figure out what they need, or if you don't feel like picking out your own stuff I can tell you that these items will be sufficient to get yourself up and running.
The picture should explain it pretty well, but in case you need some more help here's how it goes:
You've got the Audio Technica AT-LP60 (the item I'm reviewing). That has a cord that comes out of the back of it. It also comes two adapter cords. One of the adapters creates a female 3.5mm connection at the end of it. The other adapter creates a male 3.5mm connection at the end of it. I used that second adapter and plugged it into the back of the Lepy mini amplifier. Then I took my speaker wire and cut two pieces about 3.5 feet long. You have to separate the ends of the speaker wire at both ends and use a wire stripper to strip away about a half inch of the clear casing. One part of the speaker wire casing has a black line running through it and the other is just clear. The side with the black line is what you plug into the black terminal on the back of the mini amplifier, the clear goes into the red terminal. On the other end of the wire the black line side goes into the black knob of the speaker, clear goes into the red knob. On the Micca Speakers I'm using you have to unscrew both the knobs most of the way and a little hole is revealed in there, thread the stripped part of the wire into this hole and then screw the knobs back in place. I know this is probably really simple stuff to most people, but this was the first time I ever set anything up like this so I figure somebody might appreciate the extra explanation.
Here's what the setup looks like all put together:

I paired this with a set of Edifier R1700BT self powered bookshelf speakers in a custom made cabinet and it really sounds pretty good for what it is. I love the automatic start/stop feature and i feel it's a great entry level player.

It"s a perfect entry level turntable
By SlickMonkey on April 3, 2017
It"s a perfect entry level turntable. if you are on a budget or just want something better than the Crosley junk, then step up to this. It's not a stellar turntable but it 10x better than the cheap players, and it's upgradeable if you want to grow your system progressively.By SlickMonkey on April 3, 2017

Great Value. A decent option for those of you who are just starting out with vinyl, or those who have a small vinyl library.

Pensé en comprar una Crosley, pero esas tornamesas solo sirven de adorno, tienen un pésimo desempeño y la calidad de sus materiales es muy chafa. Esta tornamesa es una excelente opción para empezar de nuevo y a un excelente precio; ya habrá tiempo y dinero para dar el gran salto y comprar la AT-LP120. Aunque el preamplificador suena bien siento que le hace falta punch, así que compré un preamp de bulbos. Saludos.
