Victrola, a manufacturer of turntables and music-related products in the home for more than 115 years, has announced the launch of the Victrola Automatic, a fully automatic turntable that combines ease of use with the brand’s sleek, modern design aesthetic.
Along with automatic play and tonearm lowering/raising functions, Victrola Automatic also offers more modern features, including Bluetooth connectivity, as well as a repeat button to continuously repeat the side of a vinyl record, which eliminates unwanted pauses and manual tonearm resets during listening sessions.
“Our team has been working on a fully automatic turntable design for over three years, but we weren’t going to release it to the market until we had something that looks better, performs better, and is easier to use than any other turntable on the market in its class,” says Scott Hagen, CEO, Victrola.
“I’m more than confident to say Victrola has delivered. We again have a product that challenges the conventional approach on behalf of new customers’ needs, and it’s resulted in a beautiful, easy-to-use, quality-centric, and affordable turntable.”
