General

AKAI's BT-100 is a belt-drive turntable that can playback music wirelessly via Bluetooth, over your speakers via RCA, or digitise your entire record collection via USB.

Built to last

Despite the fact that the BT-100 is very lightweight, (only 2.8 kilograms), it can produce a lot of volume due to the belt-drive system with a stable, isolated DC motor. This means you won't hear any unwanted noises while your vinyl is playing. The plastic platter ensures an even surface and a low S/N ratio. It has a straight tonearm and a high-quality cartridge with a stable stylus for outstanding audio.

Modern technology

A turntable is of course designed first and foremost to play records, and thanks to the RCA output, you can connect it to an amplifier and a set of active speakers and listen to your heart's content thanks to the switchable preamp. Thanks to Bluetooth functionality, you can also connect it to a set of wireless speakers. What's even more fun is digitising your entire vinyl collection for eternity via USB and with the help of the special software. The BT-100 offers 33 1/3 or 45 RPM and a headphone jack for when you want to listen in private.
