#VERTICAL TURNTABLE HOW TO#
The idea to built it vertical was born from search how to make the tonearm without counterweight and antiskating and here are the results. The Vertical Vinyl Wall Mountable Turntable is available at various retailers, ranging in price from around US60 to 130.

The Floating Record™ Vertical Turntable is a record player reimagined - it plays records vertically so it looks like your record is actually…floating. Here are some pictures of the turntable presented for the first time on the Ljubljana hifi show. Choose the features that are most important to you. Some vertical turntables come with built-in speakers, while others have USB ports for connecting to a computer. Turntables, or welding rotating tables, provide a high-precision, low-cost method of rotating a pipe, vessel or industrial work piece around a vertical axis. High-precision, cost effective method of rotating a workpiece around a vertical axis. Choose a model that offers the speed you need. Rotary turntables are used for precise positioning in the flat or horizontal position. It’s not often that we come across a turntable that is both beautiful and functional. Most vertical turntables have two speeds: 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM. Other components used include a fully-adjustable carbon-fiber tone-arm, a polished Acrylic platter, an Audio Technica AT95E cartridge, a felt mat, a silicone belt and American dark walnut and maple woods for the base to give it that old-school classic look.Īll Floating Record units will be shipped by Gramovox in a custom, reusable carton for the Kickstarter price of $349 (not including Shipping) for either wood option.When we first got wind of Gramovox’s Floating Record™ Vertical Turntable on Kickstarter, we immediately jumped at the chance to back the campaign, which ultimately raised over $1.5 million. The Tymphany 2 inch neodymium speakers used in the build are designed to produce “the best possible sound without compromising on aesthetics or performance.” It’s an innovation that looks well designed, seems easy to use and sounds great too, so says the professionals down at Chicago’s Earhole Studios.
#VERTICAL TURNTABLE FULL#
With its vertical arm and full range speakers built in, the Floating Record player also features an audio out (RCA) option should you decide to hook it up to your Hi-Fi. Instead of placing a record horizontally, this player is built to play a disc standing upright. The Gramovox player is an all-in-one-unit that steps out the conventional spectrum and brings a new and unique style of listening to music to the turntable (pardon the pun). Of course high-res audio files and high-end components make for a fantastic audio experience too, but vinyl is vinyl and I don’t believe it’ll ever go out of style especially if guys like Gramovox keep dishing out players like the Floating Record, Vertical Turntable.Īlthough it begs the question – ‘if it ain’t broke….?’- the start-up on Kickstarter isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel with their player and it’s unique design, they just wanted to make it more “interesting”. There’s something about the gritty tone of a vinyl record playing off a needle cartridge that really makes audio sound so appealing.
