Audio-Technica
To celebrate its 60th anniversary, Audio-Technica is launching a collection of limited-edition turntables, headphones, and cartridges. But most notably, this collection includes the “Sound Burger,” a famous portable turntable originally produced in the early 1980s.
The Sound Burger (also called Mister Disc in some markets) is basically a Walkman for vinyl records. It’s impressively lightweight and portable, and it uses a unique spring mechanism to hold records in place. Of course, Sound Burger needs to sit on a flat surface to play records, so it isn’t something you can take on your morning commute.
Audio-Technica added some modern technology to the new Sound Burger, including a rechargeable battery, a USB-C port, Bluetooth connectivity, and a 3.5mm jack (which replaces the traditional RCA outputs). Note that the Sound Burger can play full-sized LPs or singles at 33-1/3 and 45 RPM.
