Hi, like a lot of us old folk I got rid of my albums back in the 90's for cd's etc. Now wants to go back to getting back some of my favourite LP's.

Recently bought a TEAC 400XBT turntable (with analogue and BT outputs), now need some small minimalist 6" height x 5" depth, doesn't matter width bluetooth speakers (not a standalone BT speaker and preferably not cable connected to the turntable)

Any recommendations for suitable speakers with a decent bass response please? Ta smile

The Audioengine A2 has a nice bass response for a small speaker. The size is just around that you have specified, with a width of 4”.
I ve got the non Bluetooth version and really like the sound.
The current Bluetooth version can also be hardwired via a 3.5mm stereo plug or USB.

BlueTooth compression completely negates any of the analogue "advantage" of vinyl surely?. Might just as well stream it at a higher bitrate from the internet?.

I share your enthusiasm for returning to physical albums. I bought a good CD player and dug out a very good old analogue amp for this purposta and started buying CDs again. Its nice to listen to a whole album, no phone, no apps, just press play and listen to it all.

Thanks for your input guys, will investigate further.

Yes BT does loose some of the signal so will try to hardwire any kit.
