Spotted something interesting on the interweb yesterday - well, interesting to someone like me who's always banging on about how capable Vestax turntables are, anyway!
It appears Vestax have a new sub-brand called Vesta Audio and showed a more hi-fi based direct drive turntable called the ACT-X100 at the recent Musikmesse Music Show in Frankfurt. It appears that all the DJ features such as reverse play and variable speed have been stripped out, leaving the deck as a basic DD with an offboard control box. No word on price or even if it'll go into production but I like the look of it.

As an aside, the desktop speakers on the same page are rather cute, too...
