Vinyl’s resurgence (outselling CDs for three years) plus 50% of buyers lacking turntables drives Bluetooth models targeting wireless-first, under-40 listeners prioritizing convenience over traditional hi-fi stacks.

Sony PS-LX3BT and PS-LX5BT are fully automatic belt-drive turntables with aptX Adaptive Bluetooth, aluminium platters, built-in phono stages, USB vinyl ripping, and minimalist living-room-focused design.

PS-LX3BT ($400) uses a fixed cable and heavier 3.5g tracking cartridge, while PS-LX5BT ($500) adds gold-plated detachable RCA outputs, 2.0g tracking, stiffer chassis, and enhanced vibration damping.

TEAC’s $629.99 TN-400BT X/TB is a belt-drive Bluetooth turntable launching Spring 2026, targeting wireless-first listeners with modern vinyl playback flexibility.

Limited-edition turquoise blue lacquer finish distinguishes this model, while high-density MDF plinth, aluminum platter, and machined controls emphasize durability beyond entry-level turntables.

Bluetooth 5.2 with SBC, aptX, and aptX Adaptive codecs enables high-quality wireless vinyl streaming, storing up to eight paired headphones or speakers.
