Gawd damn. Who would be happy with this? This turntable is such a scam. They lure you with fancy features but the turntable itself can barely do what its supposed to do. White van quality!!
Jensen used to be a good American audio product. Now Namsung (Korea) makes these products in China and has licensed the use of the name in the USA from TLC Holdings a big Chinese company. Gets to be a dogs breakfast of who owns who and who owns what.
Good Video vwestlife ! What a Shit of TT that’s , can disgusted you to listen all vinyl with this tt !!
Prefer looking after an “AT LP120 usbc” or “usbhc” , which are serious … 😉
(i have vinyl TT of 70/80’s , like Thorens and Technics , they sound perfectly!)
The funny thing is that people who accept that Jensen’s lower end model (the JTA 230 ) is an under $50. starter turntable, have better things to say about that than you are saying about this nearly $100. more Jensen. People have even called the JTA 230, the best turntable for someone who doesn’t have much money to spend. Who would have thought? Their lower end turntables give you more for your money.
Wow, not only does it have no bass, much of the sound spectrum is also frazzled and distorted…Ugh!! I don’t think I’ll be swapping out my PX-2 any time for one of these…
I fe found the exact same one at a thrift store.
And i tried to put a magnetic head shellsistem on and it worked just fune but the headshellsistem costet near 80 $ so i felt kind of dump.
But yea it is a peace of junk sorry Jensen but wtf did you do to this peace of garbitch?
Record players in general just suck. They are extremely expensive (seriously, can’t find a good one for under $300 and that is just the table, no speakers, nothing.) And for the ‘audio quality’ I can get the same thing by simply remastering tracks myself.
They should of gone outta phase a long time ago, and digital tracks don’t sound that different. They were good compared to 8 tracks/cassettes,but they aren’t worth the money these days.
Exactly the same (or at least it looks very similar) turntable is sold under ”Bush” brand in UK. On Amazon UK this junk is listed as ”Bush Full Size Vinyl Player” and goes for £60. Avoid like the plague…
looks a little similar to the bush acoustic mtt2 turntable. since then i have replaced with the Gemini pt 2100. The bush acoustic mtt2 turntable has a Standard mount.
Jensen in name only! If you see “Made In China” on anything you automatically have to KNOW it’s a piece of cheaply made junk! Sadly, people today really do NOT know what a good quality system is supposed to sound like…They are so used to the tiny speakers on Chinese junk and their iPhones that they can’t recognize quality anymore.

these are like toy turntables. I prefer a BSR over Jensen, crosley or whatever. BSRs might’ve been cheap but at least they’d last more than these

I noticed the entire needle shaft was plastic which would have some bearing on the poor frequency response
Avoid the turntable with Leetac family
I almost feel sorry for you, Kevin… Jensen should have put a LOT more effort into making this!!!
Jensen is pure sh!t. I purchased a CD/Radio & it only lasted a year. Both the player & the tuner broke.
Song anyone?
Nearly as bad as a crosley cruiser
4:03 those “s” sounds fucking killed my eardrums.
These manufacturers should be tried for inflicting this piece of garbage on he masses
I hate this turntable so much.

is that a Maxell Rock 2 sampler i see at 6:50?
sounds ok
SO all in all the conclusion should of been to ditch vinyl completely because it is garbage and buy a cd player!
this is a piece of shit…
Is the cantilever even metal? It looks like plastic.

I’d never replace my 1969 Dual 1219… I somehow have the feeling that every turntable with a USB Type B-Port is junk…
Damn the difference from that cart was night and day.

Your a nice guy, honesty seems not so easy to find. Thank you for your reviews and videos.

so sad the millennials are buying these cheap junk plastic crap turntables. they have no idea what a quality turntable sounds like

Are you going to review the PYLE PLTTB3U turntable from what i see look good what do you think?t
Wow.
I’ll stick with my Pioneer PL-400 turntable, built back in the days when people cared about audio… 🙂
VWestLife, what turntable system do you have?
I quote Andrew Martin from Bicentennial Man….”what a piece of shit!”
Jensen?!
“I never asked for this”
*JUST PUT IT IN THE GARBAGE WHERE IT BELONGS*
Dear God, you’re right that DOES SOUND TERRIBLE. We’re talking about the chosen music, right?
I would rather have a realistic lab 400 turntable
Jensen is one stupid company
Do you know of any halfway decent ones say 50~40$ and below?
looks a little similar to the bush acoustic mtt2 turntable. since then i have replaced with the Gemini pt 2100. The bush acoustic mtt2 turntable has a Standard mount.
Putting an “EJECT” button on a record player was my first tip that this thing wasn’t exactly “professional”
agreed. even for a cheap turntable the sound quality is fucking terrible!!!
raspy/old sounding sounds coming from an turntable makes me feel nice inside, I love it, I like that model

Oh, that looks crude as sin! Plastic Platter is always a NO-NO!!!!!
