New Yves Béhar-Designed Love Turntable Uses Smartphones to Play Records

Promising to pair “the intimacy of vinyl with modern day convenience,” a new “intelligent” turntable device designed by Swiss designer Yves Béhar is set to launch soon, allowing music fans to play vinyl directly from their smartphone. When linked up with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi via its associated app, the sculptural Love device — which turns counterclockwise on a still record – can be controlled by a smartphone to play records, skip and repeat tracks, alter the volume and even select different RPM speeds at the touch of a button. Although not available yet, you can sign up here to be the first to know when it drops.
