Cambridge Audio recently revealed a new turntable for those who like the touch and feel of vinyl. It is called the Cambridge Audio TT50 and you’ll find this modern take on a retro device priced at around $500.

The Cambridge Audio TT50 was designed in partnership with turntable manufacturer Pro-Ject. You won’t find any USB ports for ripping your 45s to your computer - this is a plain old turntable like your daddy used to have. It does however sport gold plated phono/RCA connections for connecting to your home A/V receiver.

We can’t really say looking at the tech specifications how well the TT50 will perform - we are more likely to listen to music from our iPods than this. That being said, we do have a few vinyls inherited we might pop on the turntable for a spin. Cambridge Audio says the design “carefully controls resonance and provides matched acoustic impedance to the vinyl record for maximum detail retrieval.” Sounds good to us - available now.
