There’s a certain rightness to placing a record on a platter, lowering the tonearm, and hearing that gentle crackle just before the music begins. The LP&No.1 Record Player with its companion Stereo Bookshelf Speakers doesn’t just play music; it provides that entire, satisfying experience right out of the box. Finished in a warm, inviting Mahogany, this system feels less like a piece of electronics and more like a piece of furniture that sings.
At its heart is a proper vintage 3-speed belt drive turntable, ready to spin every record in your collection, from old 78s to modern LPs. It understands the simple pleasures, like the clever auto stop function that gently halts the platter at the end of a side, saving you a trip across the room. The included speakers aren’t an afterthought; they’re voiced to work with the player, delivering a surprisingly full and engaging stereo image that honors the warmth of the vinyl format. It’s a complete, thoughtful package for anyone eager to explore the realm of records without the usual fuss.
More than just a turntable, it’s an experience:
- Rediscover the ritual of playing an entire album, just as the artist intended.
- Enjoy a system that balances classic aesthetics with plug-and-play simplicity.
- Bridge your analog and digital worlds with a seamless wireless input for streaming from a smartphone.
- Appreciate the thoughtful inclusion of everything you need to start listening in minutes.
Yet, this vinyl player doesn’t lock you in. While it sings beautifully on its own, the built-in preamp and RCA output act as an open invitation to connect to a larger sound system down the road. It’s a machine that respects both the past and the present, understanding that a love for music transcends any single format. The retro wood grain design and protective dust cover ensure it looks just as good silent as it does when it’s filling the room with music.

The LP&No.1 Record Player stands as a charming entry point into the vinyl universe, uniquely blending classic aesthetics with modern conveniences. At a price of $129.99, it doesn’t just play records; it offers a nostalgic experience that captivates both young enthusiasts and seasoned audiophiles alike.
When we juxtapose it with the Victrola Vintage 3-Speed Bluetooth Record Player, a competitor in this space, certain defining characteristics come to light. Both players boast a vintage flair, complete with wood finishes that add character to any room. However, the LP&No.1 shines with its beautifully integrated stereo bookshelf speakers, which are specifically tuned for a fuller sound profile, making it an all-in-one solution that reduces clutter and setup time.
The Victrola offers Bluetooth connectivity, allowing for seamless streaming, but the LP&No.1’s wireless input coupled with its dedicated speakers creates a more immersive listening environment that pays homage to the analog format. Additionally, the auto stop function on the LP&No.1 serves as a thoughtful nod to user experience, ensuring your records don’t wear out prematurely—a feature not highlighted as prominently in the Victrola.
On the downside, while both systems are fairly uncomplicated to manage, those seeking more customization may find the LP&No.1 somewhat limiting in terms of advanced features. If you are a purist looking for extensive options to tweak your sound, the more modular approach of the Victrola, with its array of output options, may appeal more to you.
Whether gifting it for an occasion or treating yourself, the LP&No.1 doesn’t just deliver sound; it delivers a connection—a revival of the artistry of music in tangible form. It’s about creating a space where music becomes a part of your life, enriching the everyday with every spin.
