Pros & Cons
Pros
Many sharp angles pleasingly contrasted with the round central platter. Looks fantastic, sounds fantastic, easy to setup and use.
Only minor quibble is function * feel and sound a little cheapish. Very smooth operation with no jerks. Replacement stylus which is not available on amazon is expensive.
Overall, it’s a quality product made by a very reputable company. Very well engineered and built. Outstanding price point for quality and style.
Only issue is that bluetooth streaming seems to be capped at about 360kbps. Easy to headphones using bluetooth3. Easy bluetooth button right on the front of the turntable. Simplicity of use, sound, style, wired or blue tooth.

I got it on sale for $199, but it feels more like a $150 set.
Well, it’s a sony product so it’s overpriced.
Competitiveness
Definitely comparable with lower priced products in sound quality.

I started collecting vinyl records back in the spring and snagged an inexpensive player that did the job but had relatively low playback quality had a wobbly turntable and the belt wore out relatively quickly
