Easy to set up. Exceptional Sound
on December 14, 2023
Posted by: Paula R.
I have had the Hi Res Carbon turntable for about two months. I am thrilled with such a great sounding turntable at this price point. It sleek and beautifully designed. I listen to mostly classical, some jazz, show tunes and 60’-70’s rock. Everything sounds crisp and clear on it. It is connected to a Denon AVR-S750H receiver powering Paradigm Monitor 7 tower speakers that are 15 years old. Turntable was extremely easy to set up. If my husband is watching TV also connected to the system I can listen in another room on Bluetooth speakers. Not quite as good, but offers a better than passible listening experience. I’m back to listening to my many vinyl records which I hadn’t played in several years. They are so warm sounding. I’m glad I didn’t get rid of them.

Victrola Hi-Res Carbon Turntable
on October 11, 2023
Posted by: Kyle S.
This new turntable from Victrola really is a game changer for veteran and rookie vinyl collectors. Not only do my records sound fantastic, it is a quality turntable that competes with other turntables I currently have or have had in the past. I like versatility between the bluetooth and RCA output and I always love when turntables have an upgrade stylus, in this case the Red ortifon 2m cartridge. I highly recommend this for others to purchase.

Great all-around turntable - Hi Res Carbon
on November 29, 2023
Posted by: Andy Z.
Wow. Just taking the turntable out of the box was a blast. Love the design of the unit and ease of setup. Connected to my Bluetooth speakers easily and the sound is amazing. The red Ortifon cartridge is a great add. Can't wait to see what it can do on my wired stereo. My kids are obsessed and pulling out the old vinyl to play! I'd recommend this turntable to anyone looking.

Nice higher end starter and endgame for most

Now that this is half off it is the perfect higher end starter table, headshell/cart/stylus is worth almost half of the rest of the table. Optically corrected speed on the motor, bypassable pre amp, low resonance mdf plinth, heavy platter, nice rubber mat, super quiet belt drive, vibration absorbing feet auto stop. Hint when setting the tracking force ignore the lines on the tonearm and get a cheap digital scale. Dont trust the silk screen on the anti skate, listen for the distortion and tune with your ear. After this proved itself i did buy a 2nd for upstairs. The lack of the perfect score was same problem on both tables and this is a result of the QC, the tonearm screws through the plinth were slightly loose and you were able to move the tonearm base. 2 minute fix. Let's also be honest and admit Victrola along with many other popular turntable brands are just a licensed logo on an OEM product and these are made on the same lines as the others. Designed in coloradio made in....is the same line as designed in germany made in, designed in japan made in. With the price now being half off it sounds like this one is getting discontinued. So just grab it if you are on the fence. Has to be close to cost. This model has the victrola sigma but was a real miss on marketing and a slight QC problem.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Do Not Recommend This Turntable

Do not buy this turntable, noisy platter, speed varies from time to time, hum noise from phono even though ground is connected. It feels cheaply made, my old 1985 Technics turntable sound better than this unit.I’m trying to return for either repair of refund, doubt it!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
