Turntables Reviews

The Rega Planar 2/Nd3 package is a fantastic step up from entry-level, with an authoritative, detailed, rhythmically driven and enjoyably dynamic sound that impresses at this level.

The starter Linn LP12 deck with moving coil cartridge option is a solid early step onto the LP12 ladder.

SME’s long-lived Model 20/Series V record player combination remains an exceptional performer

Moving up from the company's most basic design, the LP70X is still fairly basic and plastic, but it delivers good performance for the price, and is incredibly easy to set up.

JBL’s higher-level turntable leaves behind the pop-culture design of the cheaper Spinner BT and goes for modern vintage and direct driven the TT350 Classic. But how does it sound?

Can JBL’s first Bluetooth turntable offer wireless convenience and still deliver convincing sound quality?

Dual’s premium turntable is composed and detailed, with a bonus autostop feature and built-in phono stage making it easy to use.

Vertere’s Dark Sabre is proof that moving magnets can compete at more premium price points.

The fully automatic Rekkord Audio F110 turntable is a breeze to use and a surprisingly capable listen.

A good sounding and sensibly-priced MM/MC phono stage that works well with a wide range of cartridges.
