Victrola VPRO-3100 Pro USB turntable review & test

This video is not sponsored by Victrola / Innovative Technology. I paid for the turntable with my own money.

Additional notes:
* The same design is being sold outside the USA as the JVC AL-F58S, Audizio RP310, ProCaster LP-101, and JB Hi-Fi Flea Market 2 (FMTT2). So if you're interested in this turntable but it's not available in your country, see if those other models are.
* The software on the included CD is Audacity for Windows (Vista and newer) and Mac OS (10.6 and newer). You can download it from https://www.audacityteam.org/ if your computer doesn't have an optical drive.
* To my ears, the USB and analog line-level outputs sounded the same.
* I also pointed out to Victrola two mistakes in the instruction manual: they show using a screwdriver to remove the stylus (not necessary and may cause damage; as I show in the video, it can be easily removed by hand), and claim the stylus should last for 50 hours of playing time in normal use (according to Audio-Technica it's actually good for 400 hours).
* The motor is mounted on three rubber grommets instead of only two in the AT-LP60-style turntables, which should help to reduce wow & flutter (less chance for the motor to wobble on its mounts).
