98 Tantalizing Turntables

From Pint-Sized Looks to Slick Hip-Hop Mixers

— September 4, 2012 — Tech
It seems nowadays that anyone can become a DJ, and all it takes are some Tantalizing Turntables to jump-start your career as a club-pumping disc jockey.

This list is compiled of some of the most extravagant and lavish reinventions of the classic vinyl record player. Take a glimpse at the paper record players that were crafted from a piece of paper, a wooden board and a few pieces of metal, or some of the wall-mounted turntables that not only play music but also double as a decorative wall fixture.

Anyone from amateurs just starting out mixing to seasonal professionals looking for the latest in modern turntable technology can find a chic piece of tech to pump out some beats.
