Ive been trying out the Revolution GO and have been thoroughly impressed with its audio abilities.
Its also an excellent way for those raised on digital music to dip a toe in the past.
Then, I put a record on the turntable and switched on the power.

…I wasnt prepared how much better the sound quality would be playing a record on the Go.
The difference was immediately noticeable, producing a fuller, richer sound.
Beats Many Smart Speakers
Its not fair to compare the Revolution Go with a full-sized Hi-Fi system.

Its light enough to carry with one hand easily, and Victrola includes a shoulder strap.
I was pleasantly surprised by the understated look of the Go.
The Go doesnt scream hipster or pretentious.
I own a plethora of Google and Amazon Alexa smart speakers, as well as an Apple HomePod.
The sound on the HomePod was accurate and crisp, thanks to Apples computational wizardry.
Even years after the HomePod’s release, its still surprising how much sound the tiny equipment can produce.
The difference was immediately noticeable, producing a fuller, richer sound.
On the HomePod, It sounded like I was listening to an excellent recording of Billie Holiday.
The Bluetooth speaker ability of the Go is also a bonus.
The Go is also an easy and portable introduction to the world of vinyl music.
