    Default The Love turntable

    What do you guys think about the Love turntable? (https://www.wired.com/2017/02/bizarr...tates-records/)

    Is it just bullshit, or does it have the ability to render quality sound? What's the mechanics/geometry of that gimmicky table, and can it really match the performance of a nicely built, well tuned turntable?

    Years ago, Sony brought out a car or minibus thingy which played records in a similar way. It was a runaway success..

    Yes, I remember that. Not sure if it was ever meant to be taken seriously; no more so than this: http://www.dj-rooms.com/soundwagon-record-player/

    Looks like an otherwise kick-start TT con job.
