Paris-based design studio Waiting For Ideas has created a radical reimagining of the traditional turntable with their latest creation, the PP-1.
The PP-1 is a minimalist turntable carved from a single block of aluminum, featuring a monolithic design and eliminating the traditional tonearm and extraneous controls.
Instead of a tonearm, the turntable has a built-in needle that reads the vinyl directly from its body, and it can be placed upside down for optimal playback without manual calibration.
The PP-1 can function in both horizontal and vertical orientations, and it comes with a bespoke speaker system for a fully immersive listening experience.
