Engadget Logo Engaged from Vienna, the city of Japanese music, Minimal record player "TONE FACTORY" that supports Bluetooth

Tone Factory's minimal and stylish design does not choose a place to place.Based on the cooperation with the engineers of the high-end maker "PRO-JECT", we pursued a sensational and easy-to-use product design that can be enjoyed easily by record beginners, and has also achieved high cost performance while handmade.We have developed this product so that analog beginners can feel the charm of the sound of the record board, so that analog enthusiasts can forget the time and use it for a long time.

TONE FACTORY also collaborates with the high-end audio brand "PRO-JECT" from Vienna.The reliable sound quality is evaluated for music lovers around the world.The cartridge, which is important in the sound quality of record players, is made by ORTOFON, a long -established sound manufacturer from Denmark, which is famous worldwide.

After returning home, for those who want to relax with the sound of analog records.For those who can't buy a stereo Hi-Fi system with all functions.It was developed for those who want to listen to the record easily.

TONE FACTORY has an outstanding design, won the 2019 Austrian Design Award and participated in the Best of Austrian Design exhibition in Vienna.

The main difference from the normal turntable is inside the base.Inside the original structure, there is a built -in technology necessary for music playback, such as motor, phonoi criser, and Bluetooth module.There is also a foundation to function with the turntable.Other parts such as the chassis and platters are kept at the top of the base.In this way, TONE FACTORY has realized a minimal look of a record player.

The square chassis is an MDF with a precise Painc design.Equipped with a platter on the chassis, the platter has enough thickness to look cool, but also has enough thickness to lift the record.

One -piece lightweight tone arms are made using a high -tech injection molding mold.The counterweight is in harmony with the same thickness as the tone arm and has excellent design.We use high -density materials to ensure high rigidity and vibration control.Therefore, you can secure perfect balance and tracking weight.Cartridge was produced in partnership with ORTOFON, a high -end cartridge maker in Denmark, which has more than 100 years.

The TONE turntable can play the rotation speed of 33 and 45RPM records.The rotation speed can be changed with the electronic switching switch, realizing a comfortable operation.The switch is OFF in the center, 45 PRM on the right, and 33rpm on the left.

The TONE turntable uses a belt -driven system to reduce vibration and achieve high -end sound performance.The whole motor system is located on a thick aluminum base.

The dust cover has a simple design like a turntable.High quality acrylic lid has two small attachments.Use the attached tool to complete the device simply by screwing the attachment into the small hole on the back of the turntable.

We have three colors, black, white, and green with carefully painted satin finish.

The idea of TONE Factory began two years ago.Since then, we have been working hard on this project.It was a long way to develop, but from the beginning, I worked closely with experienced support partners and manufacturers to learn a lot.

In the age of the record generation, the cassette has already come out and dubbing has become mainly from the record, and in the youth era, it became MD, CD, and compressed sound source without enjoying the record sound.。I want to enjoy the sound of the record again.
