Phonographs had highly evolved over the centuries. Nowadays, there are professional turntables with the looks of old phonographs but staffed with modern features. One of these is classy but modern turntable called Pyle Home PTCDS5U. This turntable comes in a new retro style and is designed to have glossy chrome styling, which is inspired by the 1950’s theme. This look and style add up to the overall beauty of the product. Aesthetically, the product acts as a mini jukebox. It is also easy to set up, operate, and maintain. It comes in minimalist color such that it can easily match any room arrangement or environment. This product is perfect in living rooms or right at your bedside table.
The Pyle Home PTCDS5U is one of the products that have a classic look but incorporate the technology of the 21st century. Intrinsically, this turntable doesn’t work as simple as it looks. For example, you can easily and quickly digitize your old LPs or albums. This device will let you encode your vinyl albums into MP3 or WMA files, or directly to a USB or SD card. The product also comes with a built-in speaker and plays cassettes, CD’s, MP3’s and similar items. It also has an RCA line which can be connected to the home theater system.
