What the press says

Unlike the other turntables we tested that use the same mechanical base, all of the electronics in the MusicCast Vinyl 500 are proprietary to Yamaha, including the phono preamp section and RIAA equalization. The integrated network player is configured and controlled using the MusicCast Controller app, from an iOS or Android device. It is also compatible with AirPlay and Spotify Connect.

Nicolas

Very good turntable. I chose Yamaha because I already had a YAMAHA amplifier and thanks to the MUSICCAST function I was able to connect the devices together very easily. The assembly is simple, it's only when setting up the counterweight that the handling must be delicate.
I recommend this product.

Très bonne platine. J'ai choisi Yamaha car j'avais déjà un ampli YAMAHA et grâce à la fondtion MUSICCAST j'ai pu connecter les appareils ensemble très facilement. Le montage est simple, il n'y a que lors de la mise en place du contrepoids que la manipulation doit être délicate.
Je conseille ce produit.
