Andover Audio SpinDeck Max
Hi-fi turntables · 2021–present In production
$699 US reference price
German-engineered fully automatic belt-drive turntable: the tonearm cues, plays and returns itself. Rubber-mounted stabilized DC motor, 12-inch platter and pre-mounted Ortofon OM 10; requires an external phono stage.
One of very few genuinely hi-fi fully automatic decks on the US market; Rolling Stone's Best Turntable 2021.
Good to know
- No built-in phono stage — use an amplifier with a phono input or add a separate phono preamplifier.
