MPK Slot-in 7" record player: The bright orange record eater

I never saw a 45rpm record with two different labels on it.

Pick something other than shitmas garbage atleast, those records you pulled out would make good targets to shoot at or just throw across the room and break em.

trash

Congrat on finding the most crappiest crumbulent sound tt that puts crosley and Victoria to a better level of sound

Recordology did a video on this a couple years back. He calls it “The Record Launcher” 🚀, because, at the push of a button, it will literally launch 🚀 the record clear across the room. Your friend, Jeff.

Wow and flutter is coming to town :D

So sorry-NOT for me-as much as I love different types of record player !!

I love the design, it kinda looks like a tiny VHD player!

Why would you want to use this as a just a Bluetooth speaker? It’s not like the speaker is anything special

You say that UK has an ugly plug, but it's the most safest in the world.. Much unlike your death traps...

I like these videos there very interesting, you are very smart i see when it comes to electronics

I wonder how good this could be made if someone spent a bit of time on it. Mono is a no go for me but I love the fact that it loads like a CD player and apparently way back in the 60s the car entertainment systems would play 7" vinyl in a similar fashion. The wow & flutter is because the record was off centre which happens a lot with vinyl (normally requires a nudge with a fingernail)

what are the odds that the chinese put out landfill fodder with no mind to quality, it's almost like they're a bunch of eco-terrorists or something. not quite as bad as bottled air and not as disgusting as gutter oil, but still disheartening to see so much waste put out as brand new products.

Love the disc EJECTING !

man's out there calling Puff disposable. :(

The UK plug is a poorly-designed abomination. It needn't have been so large at all.

Their was a record player in the late 1960s called CLOSE N PLAY, it was a bad record player

Maby you can leave the lid off

It's junk

Okay I would definitely buy this player but before playing a record I’d adjust the Spring inside to what you did. I love the design of the player and basically all my 45s are scratched up anyway. But $59 is way to pricey for me

Here in New Mexico, that's called "red barrel orange."

The level of detail you go into is awesome! Thank you for making sure you cover all the points. It leaves no questions unanswered and at least I appreciate it.

I like how without the case on it ejects better than a nerf disc gun lol

I remember the old 45’s that came on the back of cereal boxes in the 70’s and they were the cheap material you mentioned

AC IS NOT POLARIZED the power runs on a wave motion is how the it works

BIG MISTAKE BUYING THAT THING

"It's not destroying it as much as before" catapults it across the room "So I'll just have to destroy it myself then"

I do believe this sort of thing is made for antique hot rods or atleast it would be worth modifying one to mount up under a dash and run on 12 v if you can somehow adjust the tracking force for starters lol I'd love to listen to one of these cruzing around in a 50s /60s hot rod just needs some tlc to be propper...

it's like a mix of pretty descent quality parts, and totally garbage parts...

It’s actually called the RR Record Player.





Record Rape Record Player

This is cool

I think the fact that you could not replace the stylus was incorporated into it’s design due to the fact that the average user would soon get sick of trying to use the player and would end up chucking it in landfill long before the stylus had even depleted!

As flimsy and problematic this thing is, it would actually be an ideal companion for record collectors hunting cheap 45s. By taking it to thrift stores, you could be checking out records in a more elegant way than using a suitcase-style player, and since it has a rechargable battery built in, it can be used anywhere without hassle. It's actually a neat device when its working as it should.

that is a cute looking machine, but the sound quality "I'm a ham and gmrs operator" is just crap. if it had output jacks, I'd hook up a good pair of pioneer's speakers and the sound would clear right up lol.

> Slot in innovative design

So innovative, it was never attempted again xD

by the way this is a copy of the italian made europhon fonojet from the early 70s, both the styling and mechanism

I want one after this review! Lol

You'd think that a designer of a product like this would say "we have a really cheap speaker in there and plan to put a Bluetooth radio in it, so why not net people connect to their Bluetooth speakers so get much better sound"? My theory is that the engineers knew that it would sound horrible and sound much more obviously so via a 35+ dollar Bluetooth speaker, so they forced it through the tiny speaker and left it in so that they could advertise the fact that it has Bluetooth and make a few sales from people assuming that it was a Bluetooth transmitter.

Terrible, I'd never play a record on this thing, what a way to destroy records!

Just wanting to let you know that your record player doesn't "randomly scrape" when you put a record for the first time, and it doesn't play. I noticed that when you play a large holed record after a small-holed record, and the other way around too, the mechanism certainly adjust the center spindle to accept the record you attempted to play, so when you put it back again, it will play! I agree it's not terrible quality. Nothing's like a good strong direct drive table (like the one I use in my videos)...

The design of the player really reminds me of the PS3.🤔

There was a metal block on the other end of the tonearm. Maybe if someone puts there something of 1-2 grams it will track less heavy?

Hmmmm....would a pfanstiehl 793-d7 stylus work even better? It's like the TEAC ones but with a diamond tip, assuming you've lightened the tracking force to 6 something grams

I had one of these from the 70's as a kid. It was dreadful, but at least didn't chew up any records.

Very nice to see Fran in your video.

Looks like a record player of 60 years ago

So cool

The only company that I know of that made styrene records was a company in New York called Bestway. They made many of the Bell singles, along with the Golden Books records for kids.
The problem with styrene records was they were delicate and easily damaged.
I've had a large number of Bestway Amy/Mala/Bell/Flashback/Sphere Sound singles and the only way I could play them and not risk damage to them is with a Magnetic cartridge with a diamond stylus tracking at less than three grams (usually at 1.5 grams).
