Victrola Stream Carbon Turntable for Sonos
Victrola has unveiled its Stream Carbon Turntable – a wireless vinyl experience for music lovers with Sonos in their homes.
The Victrola Stream Carbon requires no additional equipment to connect it to your Sonos ecosystem, resulting in easy setup and easy control via the Sonos app.
The turntable marries a “premium and elegant design” synonymous with Sonos speakers and promises “the best physical and digital music experiences for Sonos owners”, as this new record player is certified by the Works with Sonos program.
After a simple setup process via the Victrola Stream app, you can control the Victrola Stream Carbon turntable from the Sonos app or the illuminated control knob. In addition, you can send and control the music volume of a record to all Sonos speakers in your home, just like you can with digital music.
Scott HagenCEO of Victrola, said GadgetyNews:
Consumers told us that they would listen to even more music if they could play their favorite records through their Sonos system, using their Sonos app. It was with this in mind that led us to work with team members at Sonos on a multi-year journey that resulted in the coolest music product I’ve ever had the opportunity to help bring to market. We’re proud of how easy the Victrola Stream Carbon is to set up and use, but we’re even more proud of the response we see when listening to records with friends or family through their Sonos system.
The Victrola Stream Carbon uses the highest quality materials, including a low-resonance veneer plinth with premium metal turntable components and a carbon fiber tonearm with a custom-designed removable headshell. In addition, the Victrola Stream Carbon comes loaded with an Ortofon Red 2M moving magnet cartridge.
The flagship Victrola Stream Carbon is now available in the UK, priced at £899 / €1000, following last year’s successful launch in the US. Additional products in the Stream turntable line will be announced in the coming months.
