We have bought this turntable for listening to our Old CCM collection.
It has a good sound, the internal speakers are just enough to give a nice listening pleasure.
Internal Speakers
Speakers output
Headphone jack
Radio
Volume Control
Power on Switch
That’s it.
Does not have bells and whistles but it is a basic Turntable with a nice sound…
I plugged this unit to a sound card and recorded our rare (out of print) LPs collection to my Computer… just to have and keep the songs safe.
Yes… you do not need an USB turntable to record on your computer.
Just plug the “headphone jack” of this unit to the “Line in” on your sound card, then download a Free software like “Audacity” and start recording your LPs. Easy!
I recommend this unit for basic “good sounding” music playing and for LPs to Computer recording…
Nice!

Since my old turntable quit working several years ago I have been looking for something small and cheap so I could continue copying my LP’s over to MP3. I thought I would take a chance on this one. It was inexpensive and had a headphone jack which would make it easy to hook to my PC.
I have to admit that at first I was disappointed in the sound quality coming from this little unit. After setting up the unit on my kitchen table, (which took all of two minutes) I placed one of my favorite albums on the turntable and turned on the power. The sound was pretty bad coming from the on-board speakers. Tinny and with very low fidelity. So next I tried it with headphones and external speakers. (There is a small switch on the back to turn off the internal speakers.) I was very surprised and pleased with the sound from the headphone jack and external speakers. Obviously the sound problem is the fault of the on-board speakers. Use external speakers and the sound is great. Headphones also sound very good.
The turntable is manual and motion starts when you move the arm over the record, and stops when you move the arm back to the rest. The turntable does not stop at the end of the record. (So if you fall asleep listining, you will wake up to the repeating click-shoosh sound of the needle in the last groove.) My unit has plenty of power to spin full sized LP records. There is no dragging and the speed is consistent. LP’s do hang over the edges but this isn’t really a problem unless you push or bump the album while it is playing. It has three speeds and will handle 45′s and 78′s. (I did not have any 78′s to try but the 45′s work well.) The player is very lightweight making it easy to store in the closet and only bring it out when needed. The radio works, and does all the normal radio stuff. The tuner is a little touchy, making it a little difficult to fine tune your station, but it works OK.
But just listening to music was not my primary reason for buying this unit. It was to record my LP’s to MP3 so I could listen to them on my portable player. And for this it works great. (I use Spin-It-Again, also sold on Amazon.) This is a great, inexpensive way to save all your old vinyl music. (I have done 19 albums so far, with dozens left to go.)
Summary: This is a good little turntable with a decent radio, but with lousy on-board speakers. They work in a pinch, but I suggest you use headphones or the external speaker connections to hook up conventional stereo speakers. Still it is well worth the price, and you cannot beat the super-saver shipping. Thanks Amazon.

I had been seeking an inexpensive turntable with receiver for quite some time. I am in the process of converting LP’s and singles to digital and already have the software and equipment so I did not need an expensive digital turntable. This Jensen fit the ticket pretty perfectly. Absoltely cannot beat the price. It is just what I need for the job. Quite attractive. Self contained unit (tuner, speakers). As small as it could possibly be, I think. The speakers are small and tinny, but I am not interested in that. The tone arm is a bit fragile (it came detached and was difficult to reposition properly). It is all manual operation. But, as I stated above, it is just what I need. I may even keep it if I find any unusual records in the future.Lightning fast, free shipping. High rating is more for the transaction and that at the minimum it is the best product for my needs.If you are a pro and have many records and want to listen to them…this may not be your first choice…

This product does what it’s supposed to do; it plays records and has a radio. Though LP’s do stick over the side, I havn’t had any problems with them. Though the product discription neglects to mention it, there is an adapter for 45s that sits nicely in the player which itself doesn’t take up a lot of space.

first of all one side of the cabinet fell off as soon as i took it out of the box. the glue must have dried up. i taped it back on….lol. the turntable is just garbage. the sound is so horribly tinny its very annoying to listen to. besides that, the “wow and flutter” is horrendous! so even if you add speakers it’s not good. plus it doesn’t have enough power to drive them to make them sound decent. the only good feature is the headphone jack. the radio sounds a little better and actually isn’t “that” bad. but, even for the low cost it isn’t worth it!! spend a few more bucks and get something better.
