Well it's not surpising that what you hear isn't what you expected. Firstly, the video was not intended to demonstrate the audio quality of the turntable but to show it in operation.
The reason the sound quality is poor is because YouTube process it so that its 64kbit/s mono. It has nothing to do with the hifi. I thought that this was obvious...
"Standard quality YouTube videos contain an MP3 audio stream. By default, it is encoded in mono at a bit rate of 64 kbit/s sampled at 22050 Hz, giving an audio bandwidth of around 10 kHz. The default bit rate delivers passable but not hi-fi audio quality."

Wow! What a turntable! But I can't really see how this turntable can perform better than a high quality Technics table.

From the YouTube entry on Wikipedia:
"Standard quality YouTube videos contain an MP3 audio stream. By default, it is encoded in mono at a bit rate of 64 kbit/s sampled at 22050 Hz, giving an audio bandwidth of around 10 kHz. The default bit rate delivers passable but not hi-fi audio quality."

Yes the audio was recorded line out from the headphone jack of the amplifier. The vinyl was cleaned using a vacuum record cleaning machine.
