Later when I played the same album for my partner (who is also a vinyl newcomer) she was equally enthusiastic, describing the sound as noticeably crisper than what you hear through a Bluetooth speaker and a streaming service combo.Įven now many spins later, I’m still equally as impressed. It could arguably be the placebo effect, but listening to music through a vinyl player in my experience so far really does sound better. There was a fullness to the song that I’d not experienced before when listening to it many times through streaming services or on CD (remember those?). Within moments a crackle emitted from the player’s built-in speakers and the first seconds of the first track began. I lowered the tonearm - half expecting it to need rebalancing again - and watched with bated breath as it slowly made its way down onto the revolving vinyl record surface. A single button press later, and it was spinning. With the record player setup and ready to start spinning some wax, I pulled out one of my favorite albums, Tourist History by Two Door Cinema Club, and very carefully placed it on the turntable. At this point, I was a little frustrated, but also eager to hear what a record actually sounded like. However, with a little video assistance, I eventually got the record player set up and was ready to finally give one of my records a spin. In fact, I had to resort to a helpful YouTube tutorial (opens in new tab) after several attempts of playing with the counterweight left the tonearm hopelessly out of balance. It was the act of balancing the tonearm that really caused me grief. Placing the belt on the motor pulley was a little fiddly, but I managed it easy enough. Instead, the initial setup process took me more than thirty minutes - some assembly was definitely required here. I had, perhaps naively, assumed that I’d pull the player out of the box, plug it in, slap a vinyl onto the turntable, click play and would be listening to my favorite music within minutes.

Out of the box, what surprised me most about using a record player was how involved the setup process is.
