There’s a cueing lever for carefully raising and lowering the tonearm onto records.Ĭontrols near the tonearm allow you to change the turntable speed for 33 1/3, 45, or 78 rpm records. The straight tonearm has a standard plastic tonearm lock to prevent it from moving when not in use. It’s easy to pop the adapter out and into the faux metal turntable for playing 45 rpm records. There’s an integrated 45 rpm adapter set into the body of the Eastwood. Releasing these tabs makes the dust cover removable, which is a nice feature. The dust cover is also plastic and connects to the turntable via two tabbed plastic hinges. The Eastwood ships with an external power supply instead of utilizing an internal power supply used by more expensive turntables. The back of the Eastwood holds the power port and RCA out ports for connecting it to wired external speakers. The smooth bamboo wood finish covers the sides and back of the Eastwood, further selling the looks-more-expensive-than-it-is appearance. The front of the Eastwood houses two 2W speakers behind a black screen adorned with a plastic Victrola logo. The Eastwood has a modern, sleek design that implies it costs much more than it does. Stylus construction: Bonded round shank.Stylus type: Highly polished and shaped.Channel separation 1kHz/10kHz: 24/15dB.

So, imagine my joy at finding the Eastwood turntable by Victrola. Good turntables have always cost too much for me to justify, cheap turntables never had enough functionality to make them worth buying, and all turntables seemed to take up a ton of space in my always-too-small apartments.

My hesitation in buying a turntable has always been because of cost, functionality, and space.
