Turntable Spinner a pretty good success
I am quite impressed by the Spinner, the quality of the deck is a lot better than I expected. The bluetooth sounds truly far better than I expected of a turntable as I was most weary of the transfer from the needle to the speaker, but the quality and the amplification of the music is spot on and also somehow louder than running through my analog speakers. One of the reasons I wanted to get a bluetooth turntable was because of a company like JBL specifically thinking of bluetooth connectivity and sound while considering the rest of the turntable and what the needle will pick up to the speaker. It really does seem like a lot of consideration was done in this area. One thing I found funny with the bluetooth is that it continues to play through the analog port while connected to bluetooth and the delay between these two outputs is not so significant. Enough for me to hear but pretty close in timing. I also was worried about the quality of the needle provided cause I am used to using my Ortfon Red at this point but I have been impressed with how nice it sounds, I did order another cartridge that has more capabilities to upgrade. I think that is potentially the biggest miss, where the more expensive version of the JBL table comes with an Ortfon stylus this one comes with a Audio Technica stylus that doesn't have a lot of upgrade options. I think if you were considering those things the AT-VMN would've been a better choice for a path forward.
One of the biggest frustrations I had with this turntable was something many people probably wouldn't be worried about when getting it but I wanted a deck that was more automatic. The description of the features for this turntable are a little confusing and it says there is Auto Start / Stop. My assumption here was that it also included an Auto Return feature, for the tonearm to be put back in place after the record ended. That is not the case, the feature is for when the stylus is above the record the turntable starts spinning, then when it reaches the end of the record it stops. However, it doesn't stop so immediately, I have noticed it can be around 10+ clicks of the end of the record. For some that might be a major annoyance and I am not a big fan of it but I prefer it to nothing. I have never used a turntable with this kind of a feature so it was a bit of an adjustment for me and initially I wasn't even sure it was going to stop cause it took so long (or really what felt long at the time). But as I have continued to spin records on it I have found it not to be as much of a problem and I really do love this turntable in so many ways.
The final thing I'll say is one of the best things that has come from this new turntable for our household is I have been able to connect it to our JBL Extreme speaker and take my vinyl to the kitchen while I'm cleaning or cooking or to the porch while I'm relaxing. It is really a pretty wonderful and feature packed turntable for the money. I'm hoping my experience continues as such but for now I have only had it for about a week but it's been great and the family is having alot of fun with it.
To note I also have a Denon DP-300F and Uturn Orbit in the house, both with Ortfon Red stylus' and I love them as well but they don't have the features the Spinner does.
