Kanto's Obi3 Turntable Might Be the First New Record Player Under $200 Worth Considering - ecoustics.com

ecoustics.com

Kanto's Obi3 Turntable breaks into the crowded budget turntable market with style and substance, offering surprising features for under $200. Equipped with an Audio-Technica cartridge and Bluetooth, it effortlessly bridges the gap between old-school vinyl and modern convenience. While it may not revolutionize the market, its competitive pricing and thoughtful design make it a strong contender against pricier rivals like Audio-Technica and Pro-Ject. However, its success hinges on standing out in an already saturated space. Overall, the Obi3 is a savvy choice for budget-conscious vinyl enthusiasts seeking versatility without sacrificing quality.

Kanto’s first Bluetooth turntable pledges a “smooth, balanced sound” at an entry-level price | What Hi-Fi?

whathifi.com

Kanto's debut with the Obi3 turntable strikes a chord with its smooth, balanced sound, making it an enticing entry-level option. The belt-driven system promises precise playback, and the pre-installed Audio-Technica cartridge enhances its sonic profile. Modern listeners will appreciate the Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, allowing seamless pairing with wireless speakers or headphones. The Obi3’s minimalist design, featuring a weighted aluminum platter and wooden plinth, complements its performance with a touch of elegance. However, while the compact footprint is a boon for space-conscious users, those seeking advanced features might find it a tad basic. Overall, at £179 / $199, it’s a solid, affordable choice for those entering the vinyl world.
