technique techniques no YouTube that's the brand or the way out aren't those to 1200 1200 FK - yeah go under the bar - yeah yeah those are old URLs are like legendary turntables for DJs are we getting this ayah here no I think I like it where it is it kind of shows that we're doing business because you can't really see this one and this you can kind of see what's up guys Lou here and today I'm hanging out with my friend Cruz and he wanted to get involved in an unboxing video which makes a lot of sense it's exciting stuff and so the next product in line and also one that he's really excited for and I'm really excited for hopefully you're really excited for is this project audio essential to turntable so we can finally play back and listen to the Daft Punk record that I recently unboxed and apparently sounds really good on vinyl we also have this little phono box right here you probably can't see too much doesn't say very much on the box itself but this takes the line out or not line up but the phone out from your turntable and turns it into a line level so you can feed that into speakers or into your computers one has digital as well so there's a USB port on it if you want to rip the audio that you're getting from the record or listen through your computer for some reason but mostly I'm going to be listening through the new audio engine speakers that I unboxed two videos ago so anyways very excited to take a closer look into finally fully enter the world of vinyl let's do it cruise you want to do the honors man oh yeah I'll get in this all right see what you got man this is no easy job but I trying to figure out how to open this thing sure look over on the camera I'm trying to open this up here okay let me show you I think I got it no don't cut yourself man I got it okay we go now let me show you how to actually do it though just because if you don't supposed to do with one hand Wow like that anyway alright here we go take it easy Wow don't slice the product very nice perfect okay these are the little belts for the dry yeah oh okay this looks like it's just pad no maybe something on in there this is the lid the project turntables looks so good without the lid on yeah yeah that's true you know so I don't know if it's a mandatory thing though everybody likes have a little lid yeah so this is to protect the turntable yeah when you're using it or not using it but like I said I really like the look of these turntables without the lid so who knows we'll see how I set it up give me an F to you Cruz got it this is a two-man operation I could get used to this it's like an operation you know when you're doing circuit that scalpel in scalpel it's always scalpel whenever you're talking about surgery it's true scalpel for surgery cutting you're not getting anything done without the scaling them okay so here's the turntable guys you can see it's black as I said before this is the essential - so it's an entry-level turntable if you're just getting into the world of vinyl they sell significantly more expensive models get that out of the way yeah you can just move it and bring that box back so I think this one's around $2.99 but I will link it down in the description and one of the cool things about the project audio stuff is getting a lot of different colors and so of course I've gone for boring black but I mean black usually goes with anything right so it's a smart choice but anyway they've got red yellow wow this is like a lot more minimalistic than I usually minimalistic the project debut was featured in the Daft Punk unboxing video that they did for the vinyl of random access memories but they featured the white debut I believe now the debut is a little bit more money it's about a hundred something more but if you're just getting started in the world of vinyl you might not need to spend that much money spend the money on records and you can always upgrade I believe these things hold their value value relatively well because there's a lot of collectors and people getting into the record game connoisseurs if you will okay so here's the turntable this is an important component the arm which will deliver the cartridge now they do come with different cartridges depending on how much money you spend this one is the OM 5e and each cartridge sort of has different characteristics for different kinds of music so as you become a more sophisticated listener theoretically you could decide on different cartridges try different cartridges etc I know you have to balance this thing before you use it I'm gonna go watch some YouTube videos eventually I do that correctly that's the beauty of YouTube here you can see the standard phone Oh out along with the ground cable and over here is your power switch on the side now the tray here this this should lift off right yeah there you go I love it unbelievably simple but that's that's why these things are so popular because of how simple they look I can put this on mm-hmm real quick obviously guys as you can tell we are major amateurs right here so you're gonna have to stick around to the channel and see how we make out getting this all set up and becoming connoisseurs because we're obviously not yet and so take nothing that we say here as gospel right crew right walk assuming is the power adapter to do this counterweight counterweight so there's a power adapter and well guys this is looks like interchangeable tips depending on where you are in the world I push that down well that's the one I want I don't want to remove it but there's also some other ones there European tip and UK that's the UK let me know in the comments but oh probably says on it no doesn't say but I believe that's the UK let me know if I'm wrong also yeah like I said this little counterweight here and this goes on the back of the arm and that's how you are able to distribute the right amount of weight down onto the record that's right yeah so that the needle doesn't skip why not so anyways I'm fully willing to admit that this isn't about me you guys are experiencing the true first impressions and unboxing in this video we've obviously got to go hook this thing up and play around listen to some records and then I'll be back with another video ok let's open up the next part now this one is a little bit more familiar for individuals like myself who live in the digital world that's right on a regular basis where that knife go ok perfect you get a book like that yeah I'm always worried when I give this knife to people that they're gonna cut their hand open I'm going to be responsible the problem is the opening and closing no but it's actually quite safe if you know if you know what you're doing that's right you know and it's a really compact package it's pretty cool anyway a lot of people have asked about that knife in the past okay so this is the phono box USB and it does come in a non USB version which is about 20 bucks cheaper I believe everything that you're seeing today is going to be linked in the description but there is a non USB version which is a little bit cheaper if you're not interested in the digital output but I think for the 20 bucks might as well get it maybe you want to get into sampling music production something like that move you have that option lots of foam in here it's a pretty cool looking box there's the box itself go ahead those you love the way these components look that feels that looks for bust and it's heavy too oh you've got a gain knob on the top here I'll show you guys there nice smooth turn your buttons few buttons that are unidentified but I'm sure I'll figure them out and on the back is a lot of the important stuff post for our ground as well as a line in phone oh in USB MC mm I should know what that means look at this handwritten handwritten serial enough in the safe crazy also you've also got your RCA outs this is what will go into your amplifier or into your speaker and then you have your power connector here I assume the power brick is in here it's always in the biggest box yeah although it's a smaller power brick than the other one once again you've got the geography of the planet represented through power so that makes sense um we'll go with it snow portables today standard mini USB to USB you see one of these Laura's you probably try have like four of them I beg you charge of the BlackBerry with using this and one in your life I bet you charge the controller on a Playstation using ya PlayStation 3 nostalgia are you excited to go test this thing out let's do it I think when it comes to vinyl you you are supposed to listen to the whole record start to finish start to finish outside the inside kickin it old school just like we've never heard it before yeah alright we're gonna go do that guys give crews a thumbs up down below he didn't want to do this video letter he's not happy right now I said come on man we can do it a cooperative unboxing video yeah collaboration a daft punk fan there should be enough for you guys thanks as always for watching I will catch you very shortly on a demonstration of the project audio essential - as well as the phono USB phono box digital analogue hopefully this sounds as good as I expected - thanks again later guys
