Audio technology may be far removed from what existed a generation ago, but the Turntable iPhone Dock heroically brings the best vinyls together with MP3 tracks.
Designer Olivier Meynard has essentially conceived a concept for a modern precision record player that's equipped to read your old favorites. The frame of the device has been increased to allow for the insertion of an iPod or an iPhone, which takes advantage of the built-in sound system of the piece.
Vintage and cutting-edge music come full circle in this truly gorgeous gadget. The soft wooden top of the Turntable iPhone Dock is accented with the application of your chosen media, and the front reveals an elegant sound bar speaker from which the entire room can appreciate the voices of past and present.
