In the last two positions, there’s a switch to change between 33 and 45 RPM for any record you may have, and a port for the AC power cord.User manual Verbatim Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Wireless Mobile Keyboard 97753 | | User manual here! One more slot to the right, the Optical port can connect the V1 to your TV so you can use it as a soundbar. On the other hand, the Aux port is useful for sharing music with others through an auxiliary speaker. Just be sure the volume is down almost as low as it can go before donning your headphones, otherwise, your eardrums will take as much of a beating as those in the song.

If you want the warm, nostalgic sounds of vinyl to fill your ears and no one else’s, plug a pair of headphones into the 3.5mm audio jack. The Sub (Subwoofer line), R, and L ports (RCA output) allow the V1 to hook up to external audio devices that have various output configurations (including the S1 Subwoofer if Bluetooth isn’t working out for you). The Pair button (discussed in the section on setup) is your solution to pairing the V1 with a subwoofer. A rectangular panel, located on the back right side of the V1, houses a host of buttons and ports. The backside is significantly more populated. Note: I use the terms “record player” and “turntable” interchangeably in this review, though they technically describe two different products. Voila, a fully-functional record player and Bluetooth speaker.


Since your tonearm and counterweight are already set, connect the record player to an outlet via the power cord and press the knob down for a few seconds to turn it on. Once you figure out which instructions you need to look at, the setup is fairly simple: place the platter on the turntable, remove the silicone slipmat to reveal the belt underneath, and use the guide string to pull the belt onto the motor pin.

This made the V1’s setup easier overall, but it’s curious that these steps are found cluttering the quick setup guide when they’re already configured, and the manual mentions the same procedures. For instance, it includes instructions for adjusting the counterweight and tonearm, though there were styrofoam blocks attached to these pieces stating they had already been pre-set to the recommended configuration.
