If you enjoy listening to vinyl records, you might be interested in the new turntable in the form of the VS01, which was launched on Kickstarter this month. Equipped with an Ortofon MM OM 5E stylus, the turntable’s vertical design features Bluetooth connectivity, adjustable stylus pressure, carbon fiber tonearm, and supports 33.3 and 45 RPM.
Sponsor upfront contributions are now available for the innovation project from around £599 to £486 (depending on current exchange rates), offering a significant discount of around 33% off the retail price while crowdfunded on Kickstarter.
The original vertical turntable, combined with the sound quality of the turntable, is a clash of fashionable appearance and classic music mode. The VS01 combines Scandinavian modern style with classic sensibilities, uses a Danish stylus head (Ortofon OM 5E), paying homage to the golden age of vinyl, and creates a turntable for you with visual freshness and professional sound quality.”
Vertical turntable
“That crisp yet crackling vinyl sound is one of the most compelling features of a vintage turntable. But we think another interesting component is the vinyl cover itself. That’s why, instead of a onesizefitsall flattop design, we decided to mount a turntable and put your records on display for all to see. While our Bluetooth and turntable deliver flawless sound, we’ve paid equal attention to its overall aesthetic. design.
Assuming the VS01 crowdfunding campaign is successful and production is running smoothly, worldwide shipments are expected to take place sometime in March 2023. To learn more about the VS01 vertical turntable project, take a close look at the promotional video below.
“The record and transmission shaft on the turntable is also positioned vertically to reduce the dust drop area so that the stylus is stable and does not slip during playback. The record rotates slowly along with the music, making it easier for you to immerse yourself in the music.”
