"Vinyl has come back as much for the ritual and artwork as for the sound, yet most turntables still hide records flat on a plinth, as if they are shy. People lean records against walls or shelves to show them off, while the deck itself sits in a corner doing its work horizontally. The VS-01 is a vertical Bluetooth turntable that treats the spinning disc as a display piece instead of something to tuck away."
"The VS-01 Bluetooth Vertical Turntable is a retro-futuristic record player that stands the platter upright behind a low, mid-century-inspired base. The front is all CNC-machined aluminum grille and vegan-leather-wrapped MDF, with a handcrafted carbon fiber tonearm reaching across the record. The design blends cool metal and warm materials, so the whole thing reads like a small hi-fi sculpture that happens to play vinyl and stream Bluetooth audio when you ask it to."
"Designer: CoolGeek Inside sits a 2.1-speaker system with two 2-inch tweeters and a 4-inch 30 W mid-bass driver, driven by a Hi-Fi-grade amplifier. The desktop reflective acoustic structure uses the surface it sits on to reinforce bass, aiming for layered, expansive sound that can handle vocals and low-end without needing separate speakers cluttering the room or demanding extra cables and shelf space."
"The turntable side is a belt-drive platter with 33.3 and 45 RPM speeds controlled by a closed-loop system that keeps rotation stable. A zirconia ceramic spindle and high-precision mechanical design reduce friction and wear over time. The tonearm geometry is carefully specced, with low tracking distortion and adjustable tracking force, so the engineering backs up the visual drama and ensures your records are not getting chewed up while spinning vertically."
VS-01 stands the record platter vertically behind a low mid-century-inspired base, making the spinning disc a visible display. The front uses CNC-machined aluminum grille and vegan-leather-wrapped MDF, with a handcrafted carbon-fiber tonearm. A built-in 2.1 system pairs two 2-inch tweeters with a 4-inch 30 W mid-bass driver and Hi‑Fi amplification, while a desktop reflective acoustic structure leverages the surface to reinforce bass. The belt-drive platter supports 33.3 and 45 RPM with a closed-loop controller and zirconia ceramic spindle to reduce friction. Tonearm geometry provides low tracking distortion and adjustable tracking force, and Bluetooth 5.3 enables wireless streaming and vinyl audio transmission to headphones or speakers.
