Lenco introduced budget turntables LS-50 LED with color music

Since the beginning of the year, Lenco has already introduced the second series of budget turntables: after the 400th, the 50 series came out. Each of the five new turntables has two built-in speakers (the models of the 400th series had 4). In addition, unlike some models of the 400th series, the 50th turntables are devoid of a Bluetooth module. But the USB interface, which allows you to digitize music from records, is left.

All five of the new models have received the classic mechanics with a 300mm belt-driven disc with rotation speeds of 33 1/3, 45, or 78 rpm. Autostop with a micro lift and adjustable tonearm counterweight is provided. The players received pre-installed cartridges with the ability to output a signal to an amplifier. The devices are assembled in a wooden case with pure wood, gray, pink, or turquoise finishes.

Particularly among the new products stands out the model LS-50LED in a black case. It is equipped with LED lighting around the disk. You can choose one of seven backlight colors or run it in color music mode. However, this feature, which, according to the manufacturer, “saves you from having to turn on the light,” can be turned off.

The Lenco LS-50LED “color-musical” turntable costs about $196 in the USA, and the LS-50 version without a backlight in any of the 4 colors costs $170.
