ANALOG SOUND FOR A DIGITAL GENERATION

At the forefront of the Vinyl Revolution, we at Crosley Radio have our roots planted in the history of music player, but we also keep our eyes turned to the future progression of sound. From our stylish line of record players, to our newest series of high fidelity turntables, we’re working to bring new life to a classic medium. 

 

DON’T BLEND IN.

 We get our moniker from Powel Crosley, a pretty radical guy from the 1920s who knew music was for the people and created a radio for everyone. In keeping with his tradition and entrepreneurial spirit, we decided the vinyl experience was also for everyone. Our first record player was released in 1992, when CDs were still king. Naturally, everyone thought we were nuts. But now, after over 30 years of bringing stylish music to the people, we’re one of the biggest manufacturers and trendsetters of the new-millennium Vinyl Resurgence.

 

AMPLIFY YOUR STYLE.

This is our mantra. Expression is a part of everything we do, not bound by time or age. From art to clothing to spaces, even the things we share on the internet are all part of our worldview. Why should music be any different? Colorful and fun, sleek and modern, funky and eclectic: there’s a Crosley for everyone.

 

 


BE SEEN, BE HEARD.

Crosley is stepping up to a new stage. We’re listening to music, to the world, and we’re listening to you. Taking cues from awesome feedback from music lovers everywhere, Crosley is taking on the future with a heart of adventure. With the evolution of the C-series, we’ve turned a new side, and the needle’s ready to drop. Tune in with us, it’s going to be a wild ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

What should I look for when buying a Crosley turntable?

If you want to buy a Crosley Record Player, it's useful to pay attention to two things. 1) The price/quality ratio and the specifications that matter most to you. For example, do you want a turntable with 2 external speakers for the best possible sound quality, or do you have limited space and prefer a built-in speaker? And is Bluetooth important to you, so you can also use the turntable as a speaker? You can use our comparison table to see how the specifications differ from one another.

Can I connect a Crosley record player to external speakers?

You can connect Crosley turntables to external speakers in several ways. If the turntable has a Bluetooth-out function, a wireless connection can be made with an external Bluetooth speaker. Otherwise, the turntable can always be connected to an external speaker with an RCA cable. Unfortunately, Crosley turntables cannot be connected to a Wi-Fi network, so it's not possible to listen on multiple Sonos speakers.

Which record player is best for beginners?

If you're looking for your first turntable, ease of use is often desirable. With built-in speakers and an amplifier, all you need to do is plug the turntable into an outlet. You can also consider your budget: our Voyager and Cruiser turntables are entry-level models at a competitive price. If you have a bit more budget to spend, the Stave is a great option: it still offers the convenience of a built-in speaker, but with a much more powerful speaker and a high-quality needle. All our record players with external speakers are also plug and play.

Are Crosley record players suitable for daily use?

Yes! You can use Crosley record players every day, whether you're spinning records or using the record player as a speaker to stream your music. It's important to keep the needle and the record free of dust, which you can do with a cleaning kit. It's also a good idea to replace the needle from time to time.

Is the sound quality good on a suitcase turntable?

The sound from our entry-level models is fairly basic, but you can always boost it further by connecting an external speaker, wired or wirelessly.

If you're looking for a turntable with a built-in speaker that delivers premium sound, the Stave is a great choice. Its turntable platform floats above the speaker, allowing the speaker to be much more powerful than other built-in speakers, without the needle skipping from heavy bass vibrations.

If you'd prefer a sturdy, all-in-one turntable rather than one with a floating platform, paired with high-quality speakers, your best bet is our collection of turntables with external speakers.

How does a Crosley record player work?

All our record players are very easy to use. All you need to do is plug it into an outlet. For record players with external speakers, you'll need to connect the external speakers to the record player using the included cable. If you want to play a record, select the 'phono' option; if you want to stream from your phone, select 'bluetooth'. This is generally how a Crosley record player works, each model of course comes with its own manual, which can also be downloaded here on the website

How does the Bluetooth on a Crosley record player work?

We have 2 types of Bluetooth on our record players. (Note: not every record player has both Bluetooth options: check the specifications carefully.) Bluetooth-in means you can connect your smartphone via Bluetooth, so you can use the record player's speakers for your digital music. Bluetooth-out means you can connect the record player to an external Bluetooth speaker, for even richer sound.
