The other day, I posted my The Writers Workbench review of the Audio-Technica AT-LP60-BT Bluetooth turntable. If you read the review, you know that I liked much of it a lot, but had a great deal of trouble connecting the Bluetooth. Because I have liked Audio-Technica products quite a bit in the past, after posting the initial review I decided to do some more delving, and contacted the company. Their representative directed me to a video about setting up the device, and so I dove in again. That's because not only does it demonstrate the pairing process much better than is described in the manual, but one of the most valuable things mentioned in the video is that if you have trouble setting up the Bluetooth connection (the way manual describes), you might instead want to try going into pairing mode with the turntable first, rather than the speaker first as the manual appears to suggest. I tried that and had substantively more success. There still were a few hiccups, but overall it went much more smoothly. As a result, I've rewritten the end of the review. And for thems what are interested, here is now how the last part reads -- The short version of all this is that I largely like the Audio-Technica AT-LP60-BT turntable. It serves a great function. There were difficulties getting it to work at first - a few small technical glitches perhaps but mainly it seems because the manual is skimpy - and unfortunately that helpful video wasn't embedded on the product page, which would have been an awfully good idea. (You can find it on YouTube, by searching for the product name.) So, after all that, I think the AT-LP60-BT is a nice product that has a lot good about it, just one with the aforementioned caveats. It should work well, but I'd be remiss if I also didn't mention an alternative - particularly since it's one that lets you stay in the Audio-Technica family.
