Maybe, with this all-in-one record player FULL STORY ======================================================================The Groov-e Vintage Turntable is an all-in-one with a retro design Bluetooth 5.4 and built-in stereo speakers Available for 59.99 or less Groov-e has launched a "vintage-inspired" all-in-one belt-driven record player that could be handy for uni, and for anywhere else where living space (and budget) is at a premium. The Retro Vintage Turntable looks like it's been beamed in from a Wallace & Gromit film. It's a classic suitcase design, the kind with a window in the cover to let part of the record protrude (if it's a 12-inch single or LP). There's a single control knob on the front. Although the Vintage Turntable looks like something from around 1932, it features Bluetooth 5.4 to stream to wireless headphones or speakers. You can also use it as a Bluetooth receiver from your phone, computer or tablet. Hopefully the sound is more lifelike than the marketing images (Image credit: Groov-e) Groov-e Vintage Turntable: key features and pricing In terms of specifications, there aren't very many. The stereo speakers are 1W and there's a 3.5mm line out jack and a built-in alarm function. The turntable also has an automatic standby mode. And that's about it. It seems that Groov-e is in a bit of disagreement with its retail partners: its press release says that the Vintage Turntable plays 33, 45 and 78rpm records but the retailers and Groov-e's website don't mention 78s in either the marketing copy or the product specs, so I think it's safest to assume that your treasured copy of Chuck Berry's Too Pooped To Pop may have to remain unplayed. That's unlikely to be a deal-breaker, as 78s went out of production around 1961, but there's a bit of confusion over the price as well: Groov-e tells us it's 59.99 but its own website has the turntable for 49.99 while Currys is listing it with an RRP of 54.99. We can't speak to the quality of this player, but the list of feature sits well: it's adaptable (even if there's some debate over how adaptable), it's modern enough, and it's arrived just at the right time to impress friends in your uni housing with your unique vintage style.
