This luxury turntable is stunning to say the least! Inspired by DaVinci Audio Labs AAS Gabriel turntable, the Angelis Labor Gabriel turntable is a gorgeous turntable which will add an atmosphere of sheer luxury to your decor. It features four separate arms that are based on a platter that is suspended without frictionon a magnetically levitated spindle.

The Angelis Labor Gabriel turntable has been made from a combination of various elements like aluminium, bronze and stainless steel.

PT-01USB: Portable Vinyl-Archiving Turntable from Numark
Posted in Designer, Entertainment, Gadgets on 28 June 2008

PT-01USB
Numark may tag its latest offering of PT-01USB as a “portable vinyl archiving system” but we are free to call it as a record player with a USB plug-in. The highlight of the portable turntable is its splitting of vinyl to digital (MP3 or WAV) followed by an array of features that make it a perfect fit in vinyl-unfriendly environment. In addition to the USB out that sends pre-estranged tracks to iTunes, the turntable also has a line-level productivity realizing the need for an amp with a phono pre-amp. It also features an integrated “monitor” speaker, snap on lid, posing a replica to that junk portable record player that I got from my parents in my early childhood.

With no information on price, it is expected to hit the market after summer passes away, possibly in Q3. What makes its wild miniscule more appealing is its USB interface.

$47,000 Lusso Turntable Is Affordable Luxury
Posted in Electronic Products, Entertainment, Gadgets, Music, Technology on 20 May 2008

Lusso Turntable

I use to wonder what gives the courage to the turntable makers demand such a hefty price from their every new creation of a device that plays your favorite track by rotating a phonograph on a circular horizontal platform. Can’t they have few affordable productions as well? It seems Montegiro was listening to this thought and thence unveiled the unique Montegiro Lusso turntable priced at $47,000. The arrangement of black circular rings on the aluminum backdrop with silver touch provides a bizarre pose.

This creation from Germany exemplifies that vinyl is still alive. Targeting audio excellence, it features three height adaptable connected cones developed via alternate layers of aluminum and black acrylic. Whilst its one cone is supported by a lately developed ultra precise synchronous motor, the other one rests upon standard 10″ Da Vinci Nobile carbon fiber arm and Montegiro MG1 titanium cartridge. If you want a little more uniqueness then free feel to eye Lusso’s special edition, which comes equipped with a fourth cone sustaining a second 9″ SME 5009 tonearm.
