Kanto OBI3G2VMB Turntable with Bluetooth® 5.3 & Pitch Control
The Kanto OBI3 combines belt-drive vinyl playback with a speed sensor-controlled motor, adjustable pitch, Bluetooth® 5.3 connectivity, and a selectable built-in phono preamp. Its engineered wood plinth and weighted aluminum platter provide a sturdy foundation, while an Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge, adjustable counterweight, and adjustable anti-skate control give you the tools needed to fine-tune record playback.
