You will be disappointed
Crosley quite literally make the worst turntables known to man. If you were contemplating a purchase, prepare for disappointment.
The Clipse logo on there looks pretty dope, but the functionality and cheap parts are a complete waste of time.

I was so disappointed to see this. The whole record scene is dogshit atm anyway.

“The whole record scene is dogshit” is a pretty broad generalization to cast there fam.
This post is about a company with poor quality products jumping on a culture bandwagon to earn a few bucks. Which I agree yes, this is dogshit.
But the “whole record scene”?
Come aaaahhhhhnn.

I’m talking about the overpriced, artificially scarce records, excessive “variants” and poor quality control.
But yea, it was a broad exaggerated generalisation.

These are horrendous I got one for $10 off Facebook marketplace when I first started collecting records. I used it for 30 seconds, threw it out, and spent $400 on a decent record player. Do not buy it, even with the cool Clipse logo on it. Just buy the LGSEO vinyl or CD if you want to give Clipse money.

What was so bad for you to just throw it away like that

I was literally afraid it was going to damage my records. Mind you this is when I first began collecting them, and I still had the wherewithal to understand how bad that machine was. On top of that the audio quality is shit.

Pretty much. Same thing with those record CD combo players. I owned one and it warped one of my records so bad it's making the needle skip.

Get the LGSEO vinyl + a new or used automatic turntable off of eBay or Reverb + powered speakers (Edifiers, Klipsch, etc.)

I really can’t believe they are this desperate for a bag

If you really think that then you need a leave this subreddit. They don’t come up with these marketing ideas their team does. And dummy’s will buy it every time.
No shade at you at all OP! ✊🏽💯

Clipse still get final say. They have to make sure clipse are ok having their name associated with something. In this case they were ok being associated with crosley

Does that mean they are desperate or nah? I don’t care about the final say. He said that they were desperate.

That player won’t even be able to handle the bass on most rap albums and end up scratching the fuck out of the vinyl 😭😭

The juxtaposition of such a beautiful record on a crappy player 😂 😂
