Long the subject of YouTube-documented basement experiments, an anti-gravity turntable will soon be a production reality with the MAG-LEV Audio. Billed as the world’s first levitating turntable, the MAG-LEV Audio is intended to “integrate the uplifting experience of music into the turntable design itself” and magnetically suspends the setup’s platter with a patented drive system that’s unlike anything else on the market.

MAG-LEV Audio is currently on track to ship in August of 2017 and can be reserved now via a pledge on Kickstarter.
