Missing the first few milliseconds of your favourite song makes the listening experience more unsettling than it really should be. The Bluetooth feature is meant to be a simple convenience for anyone wanting to connect their device to play through the Crosley. If you are using Phono Out on your Crosley, make sure you are using a preamp or use the Phono In on your amplifier.

The speakers and the deck of the review sample are wrapped in walnut laminate, but you can choose black or grey if you prefer. But there’s certainly nothing wrong with the way the laminate walnut wrap is applied, nor with the way everything is put together. The bluetooth functionality works well and the speakers are very loud, and fill the house even at the 11 o'clock volume position.Then it’s just a question of fiddling with the anti-skate control, connecting the supplied (and brief) lengths of bog-standard speaker cable to the turntable at one end and the speakers at the other, and plugging into the mains.

The super minimal, two-knob design makes it easy to switch speeds, crank up the volume and switch to the built-in Bluetooth receiver if you want to stream music from your favourite digital playlist.

There are a few brands that will sell you a system as extensive as this for an outlay similarly modest, but Crosley is by far the highest-profile of the lot. Hey CROSLEY, one important note, all of your products should be available to ship in unlabeled boxes. At the top of the frequency range, meanwhile, the Crosley manages the by-no-means easy feat of sounding blunt and shrill at the same time.With two full-range speakers and a premium-quality turntable from Crosley, the C62 gives you a full, all-in-one system.
