Audio-Technica is taking analog audio to dazzling new heights with its latest release: the Hotaru Turntable. Seamlessly merging sound and light, this futuristic record player offers an immersive listening experience unlike anything before.
The standout feature? A floating platter suspended by magnetic repulsion, which minimizes vibrations for crystal-clear playback. Paired with a reactive lighting system boasting 20 customizable modes, Hotaru turns music into a full-on visual performance.
Designed for the Senses
Built with a VM cartridge honed over decades, the turntable delivers rich, three-dimensional sound—shimmering highs, smooth mids, and deep, resonant bass. Its minimalist tonearm and hidden belt-drive maintain audio purity and sleek aesthetics.
Crafted from premium acrylic, aluminum, and brass, the Hotaru is as visually stunning as it is sonically powerful. It’s a statement piece for serious vinyl lovers and modern design enthusiasts alike.
Availability
Priced at $9,999 USD, the Hotaru Turntable is available for pre-order via Audio-Technica’s official Japan site.
