This cheap Bluetooth turntable looks ideal for vinyl beginners – with one potential problem

The Gadhouse Mathis turntable on a white surface.

If you've been wanting to add vinyl to your home audio setup but don't know where to start with the best turntables, the new Gadhouse Mathis has been designed just for you. It's made for vinyl beginners, and it delivers almost everything you could want when getting started.

The design is reassuringly retro but there's a decent cartridge on board: the Audio-Technica ATVM95E. The turntable is belt-driven and promises "exceptional" stability to keep your records spinning consistently for accurate sound, and there's a built-in phono stage. That means you can connect your Mathis directly to powered speakers without also having to invest in an amplifier. And that's not even the easiest way to connect to it.
