TDK – Life on Record

Exquisitely simple and sleek, and meant for a vinyl aficionado (not a turntablist), TDK's Life on Record line shows audiophiles that the classic sound company is neither down nor out. We practically froze when we saw the touch-enabled belt-drive table, an incredibly sleek and simplistic piece of design gold. Though the internal RPM monitoring system is lovely, the price ($299 for the turntable, $399 for the USB turntable) sent chills down our vinyl-loving spines.
