Analog Gear News

While there isn’t as much analog gear on display at CES 2025 as there used to be, some companies are showing new audio gear of note at the show this year — and the long-respected Swiss manufacturer Lenco is one of them.

At CES 2025 — which officially got underway for press types like us yesterday, January 5, and continues onward through January 10, 2025, mainly at the LVCC in Las Vegas — Lenco is showing off a trio of new turntables and a cool new light-effect record stabilizer at the Starscream Showcase. Let’s check ’em all out.

First up is the Lenco LBT-215BK belt-drive turntable, which features a black gloss finish, Audio-Technica AT-VM95E moving magnet (MM) cartridge, switchable preamp, metal platter, tonearm, and fully adjustable counterweight. The LBT-215BK table, which boasts playback speeds of 33⅓ and 45rpm, also sports a USB port and is Bluetooth capable. A removable dust cover is also provided.

The LBT-215BK table will be available in the U.S. starting in April 2025, with an SRP of $359. It is available as of today, January 6, 2025, in the UK and abroad with an SRP of £299 / €329.

Next up is the LBTA-165BK/WD fully automatic turntable, which means it features auto-return and auto-start. Available in either a black wood (LBTA-165BK) or wood finish (LBTA-165WD, which can be seen above), this table sports a pre-fitted Audio-Technica AT3600L MM cart, metal platter, switchable preamp, offers playback speeds of 33⅓ and 45rpm, is Bluetooth capable, and comes with a removable dust cover.

The LBTA-165BK/WD table will be available in the U.S. starting in April 2025, with an SRP of $249. It is available as of today, January 6, 2025, in the UK and abroad with an SRP of £199 / €219.

Thirdly, the LS-570WA belt-drive turntable — which, as you can see above, is supported by four wooden legs (and four rubber feet, to boot) — features an integrated four-speaker system that is said to deliver 80W (70W RMS). The LS-570WA also includes an A-T MM cart, built-in preamp with ON/OFF switch, start/stop control for its playback speeds of 33⅓ and 45rpm, is Bluetooth 5.0 capable, boasts RCA out and AUX in connections, and also comes with a CE-UK multiplug AC adaptor and a USB cable.

The LS-570WA table will be available in the U.S. starting in April 2025, with an SRP of $469. It is available as of today, January 6, 2025, in the UK and abroad with an SRP of £389 / €389.

The final new, analog-centric offering from Lenco at CES 2025 is the TTA-080SI record stabilizer, a “chunky” puck that is said to provide up to 8hrs of RGB light effects and (in their words) “pulses to the sound of your records.” Shown in stasis above, you can see the TTA-080SI doing its thing in full below. Five adjustable levels of brightness are available, along with a selection of color and pattern options. Fast-charging is available via USB-C.

The TTA-080SI record stabilizer will be available in the U.S. starting in April 2025, with an SRP of $49. It is available as of today, January 6, 2025, in the UK and abroad with an SRP of £39 / €39.
