Victrola VJB-125 Retro Desktop Jukebox

So I was meandering all over amazon just days before Christmas, looking for inspiration for my husband’s stocking stuffer. Its difficult to buy for him, if he wants something, he just gets it, y’know? Decided to go with a man cave addition. He loves the movie posters I’ve given in the past - but I wanted a “WOW” gift. He’s got a pretty ancient YAMAHA old school sterio set up with the gigantic speakers and crackling turntable- he steadfastly refuses to upgrade from the 1970’s - along with the dust collecting stero,he’s got over 1000 record albums ( BREAD live anyone?) Well I thought maybe, just maybe he’d dig one of those Bose “WAVE” sound systems- incredible sound & compact- easy to move it wherever you need it. Jumped on Amazon after visiting the Bose website.I do not doubt at all that it sounds amazing -but 500.00+?? OUCH! So Amazon of course has some very descent facsimiles- with stellar reviews,but I get easily distracted by shiny sparkly things and when this baby jukebox flashed before my eyes, I just had to give it a look. Read tons of reviews, looked at other similar items, and crossed my fingers when I clicked “place order”. Got it 2 days later- let me preface this glowing review by stating/ I don’t prolifically write reviews. I reserve my opinions for 5 star slam dunks...., or 0 star total-crap-don’t-waste-your-money. This was definitely a super slam dunk. It’s such a happy & fun gift. Looks exactly like it’s shown in picture. I worried it would be smaller than it appeared. Not at all. It’s aflashes of colors show stopper. Doesn’t look or feel cheap. Beautiful attention to design details- truly an authentic looking jukebox jr. just plug in. Has a terrific clear reaching sound, it fills the 4 car garage/man cave. The Bluetooth connected instantly. The fun dancing bright colorful lights flash with the beat of the music. They function can be turned off as well. It’s such a conversation piece/ everyone that sees it is enthralled and wants to know where to get one. Most important..hubby genuinely went ga ga. I’ll put it this way. Couple of friends gave him an actual full size arcade video game- like the ones you’d put a quarter in ( back in the day i was a Ms. Pac Man fiend). The friends gave him the one called “Galaga”. Like 400.00. He’s 65. I’ve never even heard him talk about video games. Our sons had every game system as they evolved starting with Nintendo 64 over 2 decades. He showed no interest in them. I guess they gave it simply as a cave addition. Whatever. While that sits collecting dust, this little jewel of a jukebox gets turned on 😁everyday!
