The House Of Marley Stir It Up Wireless Turntable is the Bluetooth successor to the original Stir It Up Turntable released back in 2016. This version is pretty much identical to its predecessor, only now it has Bluetooth 4.2 directly built into the turntable that allows you to connect it to your choice of Bluetooth Speaker. It’s a modern way to easily connect your Vinyl music to a wireless speaker without the hassle or expense of additional audio equipment.House Of Marley is known for its Eco responsibility, all of their products are sustainably crafted with various recycled materials and this turntable is no exception. This product uses responsibly harvested bamboo, recycled fabric, aluminium,silicone, plastic and paper for its construction components and packaging. The purchase of this product will also help to plant one tree in an effort to help global reforestation. Some people might not care about all of this, but regardless it is setting an example for other companies to follow suit and start caring about the sustainability of their products and the condition of the planet.The turntable comes beautifully packaged in a minimalistic cardboard box which is of course fully recyclable. Inside the box you get everything you need to get started playing music, and setup only takes around 10 minutes. There are a few components that you need to install yourself, however whilst the quick start guide gives you the basics, I feel that the guide is not as good as it could be. One if the components you need to install yourself is the rubber belt drive, but this step is completely absent from the quick start guide. Fortunately, it’s easy enough to install the belt but for someone that might be new to Vinyl (arguably a chunk of the target audience for this product) the guide should at least mention it. Thankfully, the needle head is pre-installed and aside from the belt drive everything else is self-explanatory and easy to setup.The turntable has multiple audio outputs that give you a lot of versatility to get your music played. You have RCA Outputs, USB to PC recording, and of course Bluetooth. The product does have a decent built in Pre-Amp if your equipment doesn’t have one – but if you already have existing equipment that has better pre-amps built in you can easily turn off the Turntable Pre-Amp. Bluetooth pairing is easy, press the Bluetooth button one to turn it on, press it again to initiate pairing, and long press to turn Bluetooth off – simple. To record your Vinyl with the USB to PC output, the computer will see the turntable as an audio device input and you can use your choice of recording software to record your Vinyl (the quick start guide recommends Audacity which is a free program).The turntable motor does emit a noticeable hum when in use, although with music playing it quickly drown out any noise. The actual rotation of the platter is virtually silent, and the player has large silicone feet that help to absorb any external vibrations on the surface its placed on. In all honesty I would have preferred a direct drive system, but according to the product the Belt Drive provides rotational stability and quality sound. You will get a more ‘old school’ vibe from the belt spinning up and slowing down, but you may need to eventually replace the belt if it wears or breaks over time (though you shouldn’t need to do this over a few years) – regardless it won’t affect the usability of the product too much. You can easily adjust the RPM of the motor form 33/45 RPM to match the Vinyl, and the anti skid control works well when its halfway between 0 - 1 (depending on your Vinyl this may vary so you need to experiment with it)Overall, there really isn’t another turntable on the market that offers a Bluetooth as an audio output option. Whilst I prefer direct drive turntables, belt drives are not too bad so long as you don’t mind potentially having to replace a worn belt. The build quality and eco nature of the product is solid and well made, plus the priced is a great entry point into the world of Vinyl.If you found the photos and video of this review helpful, please consider clicking on the helpful button below, it helps me out!

So I've had this turntable for a couple of months now, thought I'd wait a while before I reviewed it.I'd looked at the reviews of dozens of other turntables and eventually decided on this.Well I'm not at all disappointed, I've had high end turntables in the past when vinyl was in it's heyday and this is certainly up there, and for the price I really can't recommend this enough.Very easy to set up. Some people are not too impressed by the fact it hasn't got a perspex lid, but taking into account the that it's made from environmentally friendly materials I can certainly live with the black canvas type cover, and you do get used to it.I've got mine connected to a Majority Oakington system also from Amazon,as far as I'm concerned they are a superb combination.Thoroughly recommended.

This turntable has an air of class about it and feels more expensive than it is. Set up is very simple and it connects to bluetooth very quickly. The sound quality is as expected from this price range but if course it all depends what's next in the chain. Hook up some decent speakers and you won't be disappointed.On the negative side it lacks a proper dust cover but it does fulfil the Marley company's eco ethos. The packaging is all recyclable and there's no unecessary plastic in sight. The turntable does make a mechanical noise when engaged but not loud enough to interfere with music played at a reasonable volume.All in all highly recommended.

I was originally attracted to this turntable because of its environmental credentials and its physical appearance - I really liked the bamboo body. I then read a few audio reviews and was pleased that it came out well for its audio capabilities. I particularly like the fact that you can turn the pre-amp off. I'm not sure that I really like the fact that the turntable stops rotating at the end of a side, leaving the stylus pressing on the disc, but it just means I have to get up quickly at the end of a record.

Having looked around for a record player which was affordable, looked great, sounded amazing there was little on offer. Then you get to the stir it up. Wonderfully made, ethically sourced, there are no recorded players for under £150 that are built this well. From its scripture down the arm. To the counter balance dial. The sound is crisp and pure. The only draw back is the switch to lift the arm feels cheap and a last minute thought. This aside the whole package is a credit to the house of marley

I love it! The materials, quality, build are all fantastic and the price isn't exorbitant. I just feel (and hope I'm not wrong) that the House of Marley believe in quality above a quick buck! A rare thing these days... this is the second item I have bought from them recently (I also have a Get Together speaker that hits all the weet spots!). I am very happy with both my recent purchases from them and will always consider their itmes first when it comes to audio pleasure!

After many hours of research I bought this because I love how it looks, I like the ecofriendly nature of its construction and the fact that this has many features that cheaper turntables do not have such as a decent stylus and an adjustable counterweight.This turntable is dead easy to set up, literally takes 10 minutes and sounds great.I have teamed this up with a house of Marley Bluetooth speaker via a jack to phono lead and it has rekindled my love for vinyl.

This is a great little turntable, extremely well put together and easy to assemble.Having the Bluetooth function is certainly the way to go, allowing you to pear up with an Echo/Dot or other Bluetooth speaker.This has made me un-box records that haven't seen the light of day for 22+ years!And, as these were in the loft, some are warped, but the turntable allows for that.Great purchase and worth the money.

Just wanted a good quality record player to play my 7’inch singles.that have not been played in years.been spending good money after bad and decided to order this because it was on offer at a great price.and good reviews. delighted. build quality good and sound quality through the headphones is excellent. even purchased a Perspex cover to protect it from the sun.and the cover provided fits great.

I bought my turntable a week ago having got all my old vinyl down from the loft. Paired it up with a Sonos play 5 and it sounds fantastic with the added bonus of being able to stream around my house! Also really pleased as it looks great too! I would highly recommended this turntable and House of Marley are also doing their bit for the planet because it’s made from recycled materials!

I`ve purchased a turntable headphones and blue tooth headphones. The turntable is great value good sound with new and my 40 year old vynals. I`ve used the blue tooth headphones every day on holiday when running for an hour a day with my I music player. An unbelievable sound quality. Only disapointment so far is only up to 3 hours play before charging the head phones

I’ve had the turntable for a fortnight now, and I’m completely stoked with it. Not only does it bring the room to life, but it has reignited the live I had when I was a kid for vinyl... I’ve raided my folks collection for some of those old Lp’s I used to listen to, as well as growing my own collection...Love it

17.2.2020

For me it is great, I am sure there is a better sound quality out there but I love it. I love the eco element to it as well which was a driving factor behind the purchase. My only criticism is that there is not a dust lid but this is such a minor issue in the scheme of things. Looks great as well

3.1.2019

Bought to my old vinyl collection have it connected through my surround sound system and the quality is great I like the fact that it is made of recycled materials it would be nice if it had a plastic cover instead of a fabric cover or at least the option to buy a plastic cover as an extra

I purchased the turntable for my dad and it has gone down a treat. It was simple to set up with my other Marley speaker for him, but he is already planning on purchasing an amp and some decent speakers.It sounds great and looks very sleek.
