Both are belt-drive, so that part of the experience should feel similar on either deck: a motor that's mechanically isolated from the platter by an elastic belt, which is the usual route to a quieter noise floor — the default choice across most of hi-fi.

The Sony PS-LX310BT has Bluetooth streaming.

The Sony PS-LX310BT is fully automatic — press start and the arm cues itself and lifts at the end of the side — where the House of Marley Stir It Up needs you to cue the arm by hand.
